Doha: Aspire Academy, a global leader in sports development and innovation, will host a special edition of its annual Global Summit on November 11-12 in Qatar. The Aspire Academy Global Summit 2024 marks the 10th edition of the gathering and coincides with Aspire Academy marking its landmark 20th anniversary. To mark this historical edition, the event will be held in the stunning surroundings of the Qatari desert at the Sealine Regency Camp.
The Summit provides a valuable platform for the Aspire in the World Fellows —comprising clubs, federations, and leagues worldwide—to connect and exchange ideas on advancing football development. This double milestone highlights Aspire’s two decades of commitment to sports excellence and groundbreaking advancements in football development not only in Qatar but around the globe. Ali Salem Afifa, Chairman of the Aspire Academy Global Summit, pointed out: “Qatar’s stature in global football took another step forward this year as the national team was crowned Asian football champions on home soil in February.
Just like the team that won in 2019, the majority of the squad consisted of Aspire Academy graduates, which highlights the incredible work we do at Aspire. Developing global football and taking the sport to new levels is exactly why we brought together the Aspire in the World Fellows community, which is so we can all share new strategies and innovations.” Professor Valter Di Salvo, the Executive Director of the Aspire Academy .
