RAISE Football 2026

9 September 2026, London, UK

Women’s football is growing – but there are still big gaps to close before it reaches its true potential. RAISE Football is designed to accelerate serious, strategic direction and investment into the women’s game. In September 2026, as part of the main RAISE conference, we’ll bring together owners, investors and C-suite leaders from clubs, leagues, brands and tech to tackle the hard questions that rarely get aired.
