Tänkbar
During the days of ICOT2015 we will open a "TänkBar" (a venue with thinking on the menu) in connection to interesting lectures and sessions.
In a tasty and visual environment between keynote and featured sessions , we want to help the participants to reflect on what they just have heard in presentations or experienced during workshops.
During coffee breaks and lunches, we will therefore "enhance" the usual café and restaurant environment with various visual aids and tangible thinking tools to help participants to think together while eating or taking a coffee."

Sports Leadership
Since the late nineteenth century, sport has become instrumental in the representation of the power of a nation, not only from a symbolic point of view (rites, hymns, flags, etc.), but also as physical aspect of a national power ( the construction of the infrastructure , mobilising of citizens, etc.). Sport has acquired a strategy to project these values both internationally and locally. Today sport is, without doubt a great phenomena both socially and educationally.
We have the honor to have European coaches, sport management experts and specialists in brain training to compete and win.
LIMITS OF SPORTS LAW
Throughout history, many political leaders have used sport as an instrument for foreign policy strategy. Mao Zedong an example of "good diplomacy" was the rapprochement between his country and the United States through the "ping pong diplomacy". Nelson Mandela used the Rugby World Cup in 1995, a white sport, by trying to overcome years of racial segregation and show the world the "new South Africa". The Obama administration is trying to establish ties with sensitive countries by sending technicians and athletes . Is it just in isport? For many experts sport has become a place to project not only the history of a country but its culture and assets . What remains is the exploration of the limits of this new political-sports scene.
We will be joined by two specialists in elite sports law - Juan Jose Alvarez, lawyer Quatrecasas and Ainara Knorr, director of the Unit for Elite Athletes of the Liga.
{tan= Social Inclusion}
How can an elite club develop commitments beyond the game? What are the objectives that follow the action of these foundations? Does the budget of the club determine the social message you want to project? These are some of the issues that we will discuss in the context of the round table for Sport, foundations and social inclusion that we will have the pleasure of sharing on June 30 th , 2015 in Bilbao
MANAGEMENT OF PUBLIC COMMUNICATION
With regard to athletes, much of society, including the media have begun to look for the value of the happy ending and the feel good factor in a story but equally highlighting the tragedies . Key figures in sport have become icons in the past decade , those successes and stories are now threatened.Not only by the defeats, of the failed baskets or goals let in, because they have crossed seas and oceans, and come to age in the Golden Era of Spanish sport (male), and perhaps we are not ready for the fall. It is easy to communicate victories and believe in immortality and greatness , but at the same time it is undeniable that these are just moments and when they end it is usually in a devastating way. Now, how can the communication of an institution or a sportsman in a situation of change be managed? How do the media tell these stories to bring greater identification with their audiences / readers? They are bearers of bad news or are they also responsible for a good or bad perception.
We will be joined by the journalists Paloma del Río, director of sports TVE, Fermin Street, journalist and sports editor of the Terra page, and Yuri Morejon, communication consultant and director of Communication is Winning, consultant oriented athletes.
