About us
Established in 2019, Pro Sports Assembly (“PRO”) is the association for professional sports business leaders. Members of PRO are inclusive leaders who believe in the power of uniting as a force for good to create a stronger, healthier, and fairer future for the professional sports industry. The power of Pro Sports Assembly comes to life because PRO members champion their individual development, organization and industry. Collectively, PRO members are setting the standard for leadership excellence in professional sports. MISSION: Unite leaders in professional sports to advance our industry. VISION: The professional sports industry thrives in a culture of accountability, responsibility and meritocracy. PURPOSE: Create a strong, healthy and fair professional sports ecosystem by equipping leaders at all levels with the relationships and resources necessary to succeed. The professional sports industry employs 150,000+ individuals across the US (driving valuations of 500B). This influential workforce contributes economic, cultural and political capital in meaningful ways, but historically it has faced existential threats operating as “billion-dollar lemonade stands.” To advance and reach its full potential, our industry must understand how the lack of inclusive collaboration on industry-wide issues such as leadership development and public policy creates unnecessary vulnerabilities. As the industry matures, modernizes, and integrates with other industries, systems and economies PRO relies on member-driven leadership to provide executives across sport, geography, tenures, ranks, and disciplines a forum to safeguard, strengthen and protect their organizations and the industry. If you work in pro sports, you want to work for a PRO organization. This means your team, league, union, or venue invests in inclusive talent development to make the business more resilient through practices that support a strong, healthy, and fair future for the pro sports industry.

As we reflect on the internal talent driving the incredible valuations of domestic professional sports franchises, #LaborDay2024 carries significant weight. In 2024, US based professional sports teams, leagues and unions employed approximately 150,000 full-time employees. 150,000 talented people driving over $500B in combined franchise valuations. That's incredible! And, this has led to a remarkable year for private equity, broadcast rights, and challenger leagues taking off!
