The legendary goalkeeper of the 1990s Colombia national team and Atlético Nacional, René Higuita, is also known for his fearless style of play and iconic “scorpion defense”.
The former athlete will be present at the SBC Summit Latinoamérica this Wednesday (30), in Miami to give a talk.
René Higuita will talk about bold football
Higuita, who is also a Betsson ambassador, will reveal the mentality behind his bold football decisions. Additionally, it will provide lessons on how to drive change, challenge convention and stay ahead in today’s rapidly evolving sporting landscape.
“René Higuita embodies our passion for sport and entertainment,” says Andrea Rossi, Commercial Director for Southern Europe and Latin America at Betsson Group.
“In the lecture ‘Bold Football: René Higuita’s Impact on Changing the Game’, we will discuss how the legendary ‘Scorpion’, with his unique way of playing, managed to change FIFA rules and the way defenders and goalkeepers interact in today’s football “.
The executive will lead the panel alongside the former goalkeeper.
The SBC Summit Latinoamérica will be attended by 200 industry experts to cover topics related to:
- Sports betting
- Casinos
- Marketing
- Afiliation
- Payments
- Relationships with sports teams
- Regulatory requirements
So there will be three conference rooms running simultaneously. Last year’s most popular format is back, with country-specific round tables.
All panels will be translated live into English, Spanish and Portuguese, but will not be broadcast to those outside the event.
