Our moderated panel of experts in the sports investing arena discuss the intersection of finance and professional sports, media and entertainment. Over the last decade-plus, Wall Street has penetrated the professional sports/media ecosystem, acquiring meaningful ownership in clubs, franchises, leagues and rights deals. This trend has spiked team valuations and permanently changed the landscape of professional sports ownership and investment. Our panelists provide insight to investors across the spectrum, from institutional to retail, in this exciting, high-profile investment opportunity. There will be a door prize—a mixed reality blockchain sports collectible—donated by Baller Mixed Reality.
The program is hosted by MoAF President & CEO David Cowen, as well as co-sponsors Chris Perry, president of Broadridge Financial Solutions, and Jake Zahnow, co-founder & CFO of Bright Path Sports Partners. The panel—moderated by CNBC Senior Markets Correspondent Bob Pisani—includes Charles Baker, co-chair of Sidley Austin LLP’s Entertainment, Sports and Media industry group; Phillip Ciano, co-founder and managing partner of Bright Path Sports Partners and co-owner of Ipswich Town FC; and Salvatore Galatioto, president of Galatioto Sports Partners.
