MSM also has an understanding with the University of the Dutch Caribbean (UDC) and plans to offer participants to conduct one of their modules on the exotic island of Curaçao.
Over the past three decades the sport industry has risen to become one of the largest in terms of value added and employment generated. It is estimated to be worth at least US $600 billion on an annual basis, and growing faster than the world economy on average. In most countries, the sport industry contributes between 1 and 5 percent to Gross Domestic Product. In Europe more than 4 million people work in the industry. The demand for passionate, talented and educated managers, entrepreneurs and policy makers in the industry is likely as result to rise in coming years.
