Football Forum Hungary 2026 organisers have awarded Dr Drew Uyi a medal of honour and distinction following his participation as a guest speaker and panel discussant at this year’s edition of the prestigious football summit.
Dr Uyi, a FIFA-licensed football agent and London-based international brand expert, was among the distinguished panellists who delivered insightful contributions during a high-level discussion that engaged participants at the event.
The forum took place at the iconic Puskás Aréna in Budapest, also slated to host the 2025–2026 UEFA Champions League final.
Globally recognised for his authority in sports branding, Dr Uyi, born in the United Kingdom to Nigerian parents, has built a reputation as a leading advocate for branding as a pathway to long-term wealth creation for athletes.
Following what attendees described as a standout performance, Dr Uyi was presented with a commemorative medal by the organisers in recognition of his contributions to the discourse.
Sharing news of the honour with his over one million followers on Instagram, Dr Uyi wrote: “Honoured to have been awarded a medal at Football Forum Hungary 2026 in Budapest, a moment I truly appreciate and will carry with pride.”
He added, “Grateful to be part of such an important platform where ideas, experiences, and visions for the future of football are shared openly. Being recognised among leaders and changemakers in the game is both humbling and motivating.”
Known for his humility, Dr Uyi emphasised the broader significance of the recognition, stating that the award reflects a collective effort to advance the game, particularly through the development of systems that nurture and elevate global talent.
“I am inspired by the conversations, encouraged by the progress, and even more committed to contributing to the growth and transformation of football worldwide,” he said.
Although the curtain has fallen on Football Forum Hungary 2026, Dr Uyi’s impactful session and subsequent recognition remain a highlight of the event, further cementing his growing influence within the global football and sports business landscape.
