BRIDGE Summit 2025, the largest global debut media event, will host an exclusive Kings League x 8Flamez meetup on December 10. Attendees will have a unique opportunity to connect with two leading brands that are revolutionizing global entertainment. Due to limited availability, only confirmed BRIDGE Summit attendees can RSVP through the BRIDGE App.

Founded by Gerard Piqué, Kings League is a major streaming-driven football league dominating Spain. Meanwhile, 8Flamez, co-founded by AboFlah, is a creator network revolutionizing the Middle East’s entertainment scene. Together, these two innovative models offer attendees unparalleled access to pioneers shaping the future of sports and digital entertainment.

The meetup will occur at 10:30 am on the Impact Stage, where participants can hear exclusive insights, forge meaningful connections, and explore collaboration opportunities with two key disruptors in sport-entertainment and digital culture. Discussions will focus on how creator-led leagues, fan-centric ecosystems, and community-driven business models are transforming participation, influence, and engagement in the global entertainment industry.

Gerard Piqué, founder of Kings League, is a celebrated Spanish football star and one of the most successful center-backs of his era. A product of La Masia, he won multiple UEFA Champions League and La Liga titles with FC Barcelona and Manchester United, playing a pivotal role in Spain’s 2010 FIFA World Cup and UEFA Euro 2012 triumphs.

Alongside him is co-founder Saad Sarwar, a Dubai-raised, Canadian-educated entrepreneur instrumental in establishing 8Flamez as the Middle East’s premier talent agency. Saad’s expertise in global esports and brand partnerships, including co-founding OG Esports, has been crucial in driving creator-led growth in MENA.
