Entrepreneurship in Sports (CANCELLED)

  • Tuesday, February 26, 2008

It's the dream of every sports fan -- owning your own team. But with the realization of this fantasy comes the reality of also owning and managing a business -- raising capital, finding customers, hiring and firing employees, and battling competition.

At this panel discussion, you will learn how sports entrepreneurs have merged their passion, entrepreneurial spirit, and business acumen. Are they still fans? How do they manage the egos of professional athletes? What keeps them up at night besides wins and losses? When do they cheer, for whom, and why?

We'll answer these questions and more, and give you an opportunity to interact with them. Come to what promises to be a candid and stimulating discussion, and which may make you think twice about that dream of sports team ownership.

PANELISTS

Richard Ehrenreich – Managing Partner & Co-Owner, Schaumburg Flyers Baseball Club
John J. Cummins – Partner & General Counsel, Chicago Professional Women's Soccer, LLC
