ABOUT TEAMS

TEAMS — Travel, Events and Management in Sports, is the world's leading conference and expo platform for the sports-event industry. Presented by SportsTravel magazine and produced by Northstar Meetings Group, TEAMS brings together the decision-makers who drive sports tourism: CEOs, executive directors and event managers from sports organisations worldwide, alongside representatives from destinations, sports commissions, convention bureaus, corporate sponsors, venues and hospitality industry leaders. For more than 25 years, TEAMS has helped define the sports-event industry and the appointment-based trade show model that powers it.

WHY SPORTING EVENTS ARE VALUABLE

  • Sports-related travel generates 90 million room nights and $32 billion in direct spending every year. Sports is one of the strongest segments in the entire travel industry
  • Sports-event organizers value long-term destination and hotel relationships
  • Sports-related meetings and conventions generate nearly 25 million room nights annually
  • Sporting events are highly visible, their impact is more easily measured, they enhance the quality of life for residents of the host city and can be key to
    economic development as well as individual and business relocation

Step into the exciting world of sports with TEAMS Asia Pacific!

What began in North America in 1998 has grown into a truly global movement. TEAMS Conference & Expo has been the premier gathering for the sports-event industry in North America for over two decades. In 2024, we expanded into Europe with TEAMS Europe, bringing the same high-value, curated marketplace format to a new continent and a new community.

Now, we are proud to take the next step. TEAMS Asia Pacific will bring this proven model to one of the world's most dynamic and fastest-growing sports travel markets — connecting international sports event organisers, rights holders, destinations, venues and suppliers across the region for the very first time.
