In this week’s Sport for Business Podcast we are looking back on the summer of sport in Paris with the man who was at the heart of making it possible.
Gavin Noble is responsible for Marketing and Communications at the Olympic Federation of Ireland but he is also the Chef de Mission for Team Ireland heading to Paris this year and already planning for LA in 2028.
We find out what that entails, how he goes about ensuring every obstacle is reduced and every opportunity enhanced from the villages of the athletes to the Olympic Village itself, in terms of kit, transport and the small matter of buying in the best air conditioning.
It is a master class in logistics told with humour and the appreciation of those who helped around him.
We finish as ever with a round of quick fire questions which might help you to find a path to the top in your own chosen field.
Getting deeper with the people who inhabit our world is always something we aspire to and the format of the Podcast allows us the ability to do that away from the hustle of the events and the daily written content we produce.

We publish each podcast on the website and in our Daily bulletins, but you can also subscribe, rate, review or like on all of the leading podcast platforms, including Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts and Spotify.
