LaLiga has also appointed a full-time representative in Manila since February this year ?As with our internationalization strategy, we are adopting a glo-cal approach - using our global experience to help develop the standard of football in the Philippines, and expertise to tackle any local challenges. We seek to position ourselves as a source of entertainment for the PH fans and engage them with public viewing events and other activations to enhance the entire LaLiga Experience?, adds Codina.

Gottschalk, CEO of MMC Sportz. ?We are excited about the opportunity to bringing the football community together as a key pillar of development is knowledge sharing and knowledge transfer and that?s the main objective of the event.?
