read moreThis year’s Golf Summit - run by Australian Golf’s peak bodies - the PGA of Australia and Golf Australia – will see National Basketball League Chief Executive David Stevenson join renowned rugby league figure Billy Slater as keynote speakers.
As Chief Executive of the fastest growing sports league in Australia and New Zealand, Stevenson is an expert in driving growth, engaging new audiences and customers, and the crucial role of commercial operations in sport.
Stevenson began his role as NBL CEO in May 2023, and has brought to the league a wealth of leadership experience from various roles including General Manager of Operations at the AFL, CEO of the Western Bulldogs, and Vice President and General Manager of Emerging Markets at Nike.
At the Golf Summit being held from 16th to 17th October, Stevenson will speak to this experience and the skills and systems he has implemented at the NBL to see record growth in broadcast, attendance, digital and media metrics.
Golf Australia Chief Executive James Sutherland noted "David Stevenson has a unique perspective on the Australian sports industry, having worked and experienced success in both the AFL and basketball worlds.
"Sporting bodies compete for people’s leisure time and we can all learn from each other. I am delighted David will be able to share his keys for success at this year's Golf Summit."
The Golf Summit brings the industry together to engage and influence key decision makers to lead, grow and innovate Australian golf.
Attendees will have the chance to network, share ideas, strategies and best practices to take back to their business to help drive growth and success.
A highlight of the Summit will be the diverse range of panel sessions addressing critical business outcomes within the industry, including championing change for women and girls in golf, along with the impact of technology on golf coaching.
The two-day conference will also feature sessions on promoting diversity and inclusion, talent retention and management, biodiversity and sustainability in golf, and leveraging social media for commercial success.
