Assemblea diLega Serie B<\/strong> all\u2019interno del Social Football Summi<\/strong>t presso lo Juventus stadium di Torino.<\/p>\n\n

\u2018We have decided to play a leading role in this event, which is the football industry\u2019s flagship event in Italy, by organising a League Assembly and no fewer than four panel discussions,\u2019 said Paolo Bedin, President of Lega Serie B.<\/em><\/p>\n\n

With regard to the federal election<\/strong>, President Bedin outlined the outcomes of the two Executive Committee meetings held in recent days, during which it was decided to propose to the General Assembly the same method used for the previous federal elections in June: the drafting of a single document setting out the key issues deemed strategic by the sector, to be submitted to the candidates, and the organisation of a subsequent meeting at the General Assembly as the election deadline approaches. The proposal was unanimously approved by the clubs.<\/p>\n\n

Alberto Colombo, Secretary General of European Leagues, was a guest at the Assembly. As he had previously done in Serie A, he outlined the relationship between international competitions and domestic leagues, highlighting issues relating to the fixture list, revenue and competitiveness, and emphasising the need to increase solidarity payments to support smaller clubs.<\/p>\n\n

Andrea Sartori<\/strong>, an independent director of Lega B and CEO and founder of Football Benchmark, presented a diagnostic and socio-economic analysis of the Serie B league to the General Assembly; this will be the subject of a panel discussion at the Social Football Summit tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n

The 2026\/27 budget<\/strong> has been approved and the six internal working committees have been reorganised as a result of the promotion and relegation system that has affected the league.<\/p>\n\n

The 2029\u20132034 Audiovisual Rights Guidelines<\/strong> have also been approved and will now be brought to the attention of the regulatory authorities. The aim of the documents presented to the clubs is to maintain maximum flexibility, maximise revenue, promote competition and ensure the widest possible access to events, whilst guaranteeing the quality and consistency of the product.<\/p>\n\n

The governing bodies of B4People Impresa Sociale<\/strong> \u2013 a third-sector organisation and platform for the Serie B League\u2019s social and environmental responsibility \u2013 have been reconstituted. In addition to Chairman Paolo Bedin and Managing Director Gianluigi Pocchi<\/strong>, the Board of Directors now includes Benevento Chairman Oreste Vigorito, who takes on the role of Vice-Chairman.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
