Ben Veenbrink, managing director of The Stadium Consultancy, will be part of the 2019 TheStadiumBusiness Awards expert panel. The awards are part of the TheStadiumBusiness Summit: World’s largest dedicated meeting of owners, operators and developers of world’s leading stadiums and arenas.

TheStadiumBusiness Awards, inaugurated in 2010, recognise achievement, innovation, fresh thinking and leadership in the field of stadium, arena and sports venue management in several categories. One of these categories is ‘Venue of the Year’, won in 2016 by The Sports Hub Trivandrum in India, a project in which The Stadium Consultancy was responsible for executing design reviews of the various design phases.

This year the summit will be held in the Emirates Old Trafford cricket stadium in Manchester on 4-5 June 2019.
