The European Golf Business Conference gets ‘Back to Basics’ in Lisbon

Among the panel discussions and presentation topics on the agenda are: Growing the game of golf, the power and potential of the female golf market, embracing and integrating technological advances in the golf industry, Intelligent pricing in golf, the role and impact and third party tee time resellers in golf and many more.

The 2013 European Golf Business Conference is headed for Lisbon Portugal. The annual event hosted by the European Golf Course Owners Association (EGCOA) is now widely regarded as a must attend event on the golf business calendar. 200 golf course owners, managers and industry professionals from around Europe are expected to attend the conference from the 23-25th October at the Hotel Tivoli Lisboa located in the Heart of Lisbon.

Alexander Baron von Spoercken EGCOA President said “Lisbon was an easy choice for this year’s conference. The city is a vibrant capital and is ideally setup to host our event. Each year the conference is growing in strength attracting new delegates from around the world. We are very excited for this year’s conference which has been very well received and has attracted many of the golf industry’s leading speakers and industry experts from around the world.”

He added “This year’s agenda will focus on getting back to basics. For the golf industry to evolve we must understand better what the customer wants. By identifying the root of issues such as falling levels of player participation we can clearly develop strategies & programmes in which to assist the industry in moving forward. Our international line up of leading industry speakers will explore a range of topics giving delegates a clear direction on how to grow the game and their business for the future.”
