SportsGeneration was founded in 2017, the idea of two colleagues but most importantly two friends, Marco Vittorio Tieghi and Edoardo Revello, both of whom hold many years of experience in international sports law departments of major law firms.
When Marco and Edoardo first met in spring 2012 working as assistant coordinators on the course “Sports Law and Sporting Justice”, held at Università Statale di Milano, founded by Professor Avv. Lucio Colantuoni, they could not have imagined what was to come of their future.
After years of close contact with first the academic and then the professional world, Marco and Edoardo realized the vast opportunities the sports market has to offer, characterized by a general lack of professionalism that stands in the way of clients receiving complete and tailor-made services.
And so, SportsGeneration is born.
