The Leaders P8 Performance forum at AS Monaco's Performance Center

The Leaders P8 Performance forum at AS Monaco's Performance Center
On Friday 4 February, AS Monaco hosted the Leaders P8 Performance forum at the Performance Centre, an event that brought together some of the most renowned managers in the world of sport.

Arsène Wenger, Toto Wolff, Dave Brailsford… a dozen or so of the sport’s top managers were present on Friday at La Turbie to take part in the Leaders P8 Performance forum, which was also attended by the Vice-President CEO Oleg Petrov and the Sporting Director Paul Mitchell.

An event focused on performance

Organised jointly by AS Monaco and Leaders in Sport, a leading provider of sports leadership and content, the event focused on performance. Coming from various backgrounds (football, cycling, automotive, sailing…), the participants were able to exchange on the subject, share their rich experiences, but also discuss the new practices of tomorrow, through various round tables and working sessions.

Guided by James Bunce, Director of Performance, the guests also visited the AS Monaco Performance Centre building, which will be delivered this summer.
Before receiving a souvenir, everyone posed for a photo on the rooftop of the building.

When I was in AS Monaco, we were already talking about transforming La Turbie into a modern infrastructure. It took a long time but the result is fantastic: this Performance Centre is a jewel. It's a chance for the players to be able to work here, to train, to progress.
