Management, marketing and economy in sports organizations

Abstract

The Sport in Society journal has an explicit interest in publishing manuscripts related to the management, evaluation and measurement of sports-related events. This special issue contains different studies that are clustered into 4 groups of articles: a) management and entrepreneurship in sports organizations, b) gender differences in sports and sports organizations, c) marketing of sports organizations and d) socio-economic impact of sports events. However, according to the authors, in spite of the importance of this concept in private organizations, there is very scant research in the public sector of the sporting organizations. According to the research topics in this field, education, technology and sport management are very important topics for the field of sport entrepreneurship or sport innovation.
