Arbeitskreis Sportökonomie e.V. (Working Group on Sports Management) (Prof. Dr. Gerd Nufer)

The Arbeitskreis Sportökonomie e.V. sees itself as a centre of communication between academics and working sports managers. Sport is at the center of all considerations. Here economic methods and instruments from business administration and economics and related areas are used in order to gain new insights. A hands-on orientation – as required from an applied science – is always important. The working group offers help to sports practitioners, that is, sports clubs and associations but also other sports organisations. The working group offers consulting, draws attention to specific study programmes at universities and universities of applied sciences and other educational institutes and points out new occupational fields in the areas of sports management and sports business administration.

Prof. Dr. Gerd Nufer, editor of the book of selected essays on “Management und Marketing im Sport. Betriebswirtschaftliche Grundlagen und Anwendungen der Sportökonomie“ (hrsg. zus. m. André Bühler, Erich Schmidt Verlag, Berlin 2008) was admitted to the working group due to the recommendation of two renowned advisors in 2009. (The recommendation by advisors who are already members is a prerequisite for being admitted to the working group.)
