Women’s Football and the FIFA Women’s Wold Cup 2023 in the Sportlight


In the last few years, one would be hard-pressed to find a sport that has grown more exponentially than women’s football: attendance records are constantly being broken, global commercial brands are investing in international tournaments and national leagues, and a growing number of broadcast deals bring the talent, skill and resilience of female players to ever-increasing audiences. In conversation with Declan McBennett, Group Head of Sport at RTE, Sarai Bareman, FIFA’s Chief Women’s Football Officer and one of the most influential leaders shaping the future of women’s football, will share in this session what has been achieved so far and what the future looks like for the women’s game.

Speaker(s):

Sarai Bareman, Chief Women’s Football Officer at FIFA
Declan McBennett, Group Head of Sports at RTE
