Business of Sports in North Texas

Sports are big business.

 

 

NBC recently extended their exclusive broadcast & digital rights to the Olympics through 2032. The price tag: $7.75 billion. Just this summer the Los Angeles Clippers sold for $2 billion. Earlier this year, the Detroit Tigers signed first baseman Miguel Cabrera to a 10 year deal worth $292 million. Cabrera earns $180K per game.

How does a major sports franchise negotiate contracts with athletes? What's involved in securing sports rights for a cable network? How will technology evolve to make the fan experience better and more exciting than it is today? How do teams maximize their brand to generate new revenue? Get answers to these questions and many others from an all-star panel of local executives including:
