The Athletic Venture Advisors team helped us build out some important partners for our long term business development. Their introductions to major players in the US Venture Capital space lead us to rethink our raise and were able to land a Series A investment rather than take a bridge round. We look forward to continuing to work with Marc and his team as we grow.
Mark Bachman – CEO, FlipGive

Startup & Tech Advisory.

Since we launched, we have seen a rapid increase in athletes investing in sports and technology. With industry awareness at an all-time high, it is important that the opportunities are being vetted, analyzed and de-risked as much as possible.
We have no doubt that amazing opportunities are being brought to you and your athletes on a regular basis. Where Athletic Venture Advisors can help is in the review process and the experience to know what to look in the opportunity. Our core competency is in the analysis of startups and SME’s in the sports and sports technology space and will make sure that your athletes are making the right decision.
Whether it is reviewing opportunities that have come to you or your athletes or joining any of our clients you will know that everything was done with your client’s best interests.

We seek all types of investments as well as equity exchange (NIL). 

WHY ADVISORS?

The ever-changing environment of business has shown that remote and third party consultants can provide great value to  businesses while keeping costs down. Is there a hole that needs to be filled by an expert that is out of your payroll budget? Only needed for a short time? Consultants and Advisors are your best asset.

Advisors and mentors can provide much needed guidance and assistance in your journey. They may be able to open doors that were not available to you, share advice on past successes or failures and ultimately help direct you on your journey. 

Disclaimer:

We are not Financial Managers. Nor would we ever intend to do so for any of our athletes, partners, or clients. What we consider ourselves experts in, is the investment and strategic partnership side of sports and sports technology. We are actively working within the Pre-Seed to Series B range for clients and investors of all kinds.

Athletic Venture Advisors can assist in the review, analysis and even help locate a lead or additional investors for athletes. This can be for their own ventures, projects they want to invest in, or we can provide opportunities from our own network and clients.
This can be offered as a service through your firm and outsourced to Athletic Venture Advisors or as a strategic partnership.

We review all types of investments as well as equity exchange (NIL).
