“This is the largest Sports delegation visiting Los Angeles since the opening of the NBSO LA in 2020. Almost 50 representatives of key-stakeholder companies from the Dutch Sports ecosystem, including the Netherlands Olympic Committee, the Ministry of Sport, the Amsterdam Arena, and more than 20 innovative Sports (Tech) companies.
