Matt Rogan has been appointed non-executive director of Racecourse Media Group (RMG), the global media rights organisation for 37 British racecourse shareholders.
Rogan is the co-founder of Two Circles, an agency which specialises in sports marketing and analytics. Having later served as CEO and then executive chair in over a decade at Two Circles, he now spends much of his time focused on Board advisory work, including roles with production company Whisper, sports equipment brand Built for Athletes and performance data specialists Twenty First Group.
He also sits on the Major Events Panel for UK Sport, which makes recommendations on National Lottery awards and advises on the hosting of major sporting events in the UK.
“I'm delighted to be joining Racecourse Media Group at a fascinating time for horse racing,” said Rogan. “Shifts in media consumption are creating ripples across all sports, and my early exposure has shown me that the team at RMG are very well placed to seize the opportunities these create on behalf of their shareholders, customers and racing fans.”
Conor Grant, chair of RMG, added, “Matt is highly regarded within the sports industry, and his expertise spans digital strategy, data-driven decision-making, and commercial innovation. A significant part of RMG's strategy is around content innovation and next-generation fan engagement – we will greatly benefit from Matt's expertise, especially in these areas. I am delighted Matt is joining the Board.”
