Winning Beyond the Scoreboard

Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium is about to host a different kind of global match-up

On 17 November, the Sustainable Markets Initiative will join Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), the Mumbai Cricket Association and EY to convene leaders from sport, business and sustainability for “Winning Beyond the Scoreboard: Sport & Sustainability.”

As Jennifer Jordan-Saifi, M.V.O., MBA, President and Global Envoy of the Sustainable Markets Initiative, said: “Sport has a unique ability to inspire, unite and influence people across generations and geographies, and offers a powerful opportunity to bring sustainability into everyday life.”

Hosted by award winning broadcaster and filmmaker, Archie Kalyana, the event will explore how sport’s global reach, cultural influence and commercial power can accelerate the sustainable transition, mobilize investment and inspire meaningful change in consumer behavior.

Former Indian international cricketer, Dinesh Karthik, will also join a fireside conversation exploring the influence of athletes and sporting institutions in engaging their fanbases to inspire positive change.

The SMI will share an exclusive preview of the Sport Sustainability Playbook, a practical guide to help venues, clubs, governing bodies, sponsors and event organizers embed sustainability into their operations.
