The primary goal of the Centre is to facilitate knowledge transfer and collaboration between the sports and academic communities. "We aim to establish master's degree programmes in sports management, likely launching in 2025," stated Dr. Grzegorz Botwina, the director of the unit at the Faculty of Management at the University of Warsaw. He emphasized the importance of international cooperation, highlighting their joint efforts with other centers in Europe and around the world, as well as collaborations with universities, ministries, and government agencies responsible for sports.
