RFEF and ITTI advance in innovation by creating two new academic programs in sports management

Thanks to the agreement signed this Wednesday in Las Rozas, the Master in International Sports Management and the Executive Program in Esports Management will soon join the wide range of training offered by the governing body of Spanish football.

La Ciudad de Fútbol has witnessed this Wednesday the signing of the agreement between the RFEF and ITTI High Tech Institute, a company that brings together in its shareholding several of the leading European software companies and that two years ago landed in Spain by the hand of the incubator Geng Road, based in the Californian city of Palo Alto.

With the endorsement of having its origin in the world's leading technology company headquarters, ITTI will collaborate with the Royal Spanish Football Federation to launch the Master in International Sports Management from starting September as an academic proposal of excellence, which will also be joined by the Executive Program in Esports Management, specializing in e-sports management.

The secretary general of the RFEF, Andreu Camps, and the president of ITTI, Alejandro Pintó, have been in charge of signing this agreement "which aims to train new professionals in the sports sector so that they have a high qualification in this new era we are living in, which is the technological era", in the words of the head of the ITTI High Tech Institute.

The Royal Spanish Football Federation becomes the first sports entity to train students through a global approach that includes management, legal and technological knowledge with a clear vocation to look to a future governed by continuous learning.
