Seb Coe in conversation with The Business of Sport
Few people have experienced global sport from as many angles as Lord Sebastian Coe.
In a wide-ranging recent podcast with Harry Stebbings and Charlie Stebbings at Business of Sport, Seb reflects on the evolution of athletics, the commercial realities facing elite athletes, and the responsibility of sporting organisations to remain relevant to new generations. The breadth of his experience — as an Olympic athlete, political figure, leader of London 2012 and President of World Athletics — and his understanding of sport do not operate in isolation. Questions of governance, economics, geopolitics and social change are all part of the landscape.
Lord Coe’s Next Project
Lord Coe is bringing his significant experience in sports-led regeneration to Manchester United's new stadium project. Coe, who was pivotal in the successful staging of the London 2012 Olympics, will chair the group developing a new 100,000-seat stadium, seeing it as a catalyst for economic growth. He also highlights the ambitious goal of hosting the 2035 Women's World Cup final at the new Old Trafford.
