The rights holder view comes from LaLiga&#8217;s Head of Content and Programming Roger Brosel (conversation starts at 13:36), who is in the midst of an ambitious project to broadcast every game, every day, from LaLiga&#8217;s return on 11th June, to its scheduled completion on 19th July. The broadcaster view comes from Eleven Sports COO Anouk Mertens (conversation starts at 32:43), who has spearheaded a bold rights play for top tier football in her home country of Belgium during sport&#8217;s enforced pause, and helped to enable new digital viewer engagement features across many of Eleven&#8217;s international territories, not least in Poland, Portugal, and Belgium, where it holds premium rights.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">On the conversational agenda:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">&#8211; The new sports broadcasting protocols and what they mean for the onscreen product and the people working behind the camera;<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">&#8211; Remote production and the working practices that are here to stay;<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">&#8211; New camera angles, piped in audio, and virtual spectators &#8211; and why LaLiga&#8217;s &#8216;fake fans&#8217; look is deliberately inaccurate;<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">&#8211; &#8216;Watch together&#8217; and other digital fan engagement products;<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">&#8211; The Leeds United &#8216;Take Us Home&#8217; documentary that Mertens executive produced and how to make money in sports docs;<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">&#8211; The creaking rights model and why it might be time to take a new approach to sharing risk.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\"><em><span class=\"s1\">\u201cWhat we\u2019ve seen from a broadcaster\u2019s perspective is that a lot of the risk, when you lose live rights for whatever reason, sits with the platform. So we strongly believe that there needs to be a new risk-sharing model. We\u2019re on the verge of seeing a new and completely improved ecosystem in sports rights.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/em><span class=\"s1\">Anouk Mertens, Eleven Sports.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/leadersinsport.com\/sport-business\/podcast-at-home-with-leaders-stacey-allaster\/\">Episode 88: USTA Pro Tennis CEO Stacey Allaster<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/leadersinsport.com\/sport-business\/podcast-at-home-with-leaders-danny-sillman\/\">Episode 87: Relevent Sports CEO Danny Sillman<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/leadersinsport.com\/sport-business\/broadcast-disruptors-bulletin-in-conversation-with-marie-donoghue\/\">Broadcast Disruptors Bulletin: Germany&#8217;s broadcast rights shake-up as Bundesliga rights sold;
