Our latest Business of Rugby interview is with Martin Anayi, CEO of the United Rugby Championship.

It was recorded in the First Class Lounge of Hamad International Airport in Doha at the announcement of Qatar Airways as a sponsor of the Championship.

Over the course of 30 minutes, we talk about his career as a player and realisation that business was a better option, how rugby is working closer together to promote itself, why it is so important to reach out to younger fans and how that can be done.

We also discover his Irish- Iraqui heritage and who he would have as ideal lunch companions.
