The first International Adventure Racing Conference was held on the final day of the 2023 Adventure Racing World Championship, hosted by Expedition Africa.
The conference achieved its objective of bringing together a mix of speakers from within the Adventure Racing community to share their knowledge and experience on a variety of topics.
The AR World Championship is an ideal setting for a conference of this nature with teams from all over the world in attendance. With in-person speakers, pre-recorded submissions and both in-person attendees and online viewers, the conference is set to be a much-anticipated annual assembly of adventure racing; an event that enriches the adventure racing community.
The conference was introduced by ARWS CEO Heidi Muller who said, “This conference is about the future of Adventure Racing, and the aim is to unite and inspire. It’s the first international conference for the sport and hopefully it can take place each year, encouraging all nations around the world to grow and develop adventure racing in their countries.”
