World Phygital Community Unveils Global Advisory Council to Shape the Future of Phygital Sport
New council brings together international panel of sport, innovation, and policy leaders to guide global strategy and accelerate the growth of phygital competition.
HONG KONG , Nov. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The World Phygital Community (WPC), the global regulator of phygital sports has announced the launch of its first Advisory Council, a distinguished body of international experts assembled to guide the long-term strategy, innovation agenda, and global expansion of phygital sport - the fast-emerging fusion of physical and digital sporting competition.
Initially comprising four leaders from the worlds of sport, technology, diplomacy, and entrepreneurship, the Council will advise WPC on global policy engagement, commercial opportunities, and frameworks that ensure the sport's sustainable development worldwide. It shall also support the wider cultivation of the phygital sporting ecosystem, including the pinnacle of phygital sport, the Games of the Future.

"This Council brings together exceptional leaders who understand both the power of sport and the potential of technology. Each member represents a bridge, connecting traditional sport with the digital frontier, and linking local innovation to global opportunity. Their insights will help us grow responsibly and inclusively, shaping a shared vision for how phygital sport can thrive on a global stage."
