All-in & Win Expert meeting in Barcelona
On 13 and 14 June, Barcelona played host to the All-in & Win project expert meeting, that brought together industry professionals, experts, and enthusiasts to explore collaborative approaches and foster innovation about more LGBTQ+ acceptance in sports.

The session provided a comprehensive explanation of the meeting’s structure, emphasizing the significance of collective efforts and innovative thinking.
Brainstorm Workshop
The brainstorm workshop formed the heart of the expert meeting, where all attendees actively contributed their ideas across a broad spectrum of topics. The ideas and proposals were meticulously documented and later grouped by relevant themes.
Working Session
The program continued with the initiation of the first working group sessions. These smaller, focused teams embarked on working sessions, each dedicated to a specific topic. In these sessions, participants immersed themselves in detailed discussions, leveraging their collective expertise to dissect challenges, identify opportunities, and propose innovative solutions.
