The Euroleague Commercial Assets Shareholders Executive Board met on Tuesday to review the commercial strategy, to agree on the 2018-19 competitions regulations, and next season’s team lists for the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague and the 7DAYS EuroCup.

Jordi Bertomeu, President and CEO of Euroleague Basketball (EB), opened the meeting by expressing condolences on behalf of the EB family to the Panathinaikos Athens and Giannakopoulos families for the loss of Mr. Pavlos Giannakopoulos, one of the greatest personalities in the history of Greek and European basketball.

Mr. Bertomeu welcomed the club representatives, encouraging them to continue working collectively as per the strategic plan defined in 2017 and to prepare for upcoming industry challenges to ensure further growth over the next years. EB executives provided the attendees with details on the outcome of the league’s commercial program and of the recently created EuroLeague Business Operations and Club Services (BOCS) group, which is focused on maximizing league revenues and exposure while improving revenue generation by the clubs.
