The panels were held in Robertson Hall, the main lecture facility for Princeton’s Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs.
Among the panelists and speakers, these execs stood out for me personally as people I wanted to meet:
- Brett D. Yormark, President and Chief Executive Officer, Nets Sports & Entertainment
- George Pyne, President, IMG Sports and Entertainment
- Philip de Picciotto, President, Athletes & Personalities, Octagon
- Leon H. Rose, Basketball Division Head, CAA Sports
- Peter Roby, Athletics Director, Northeastern University
- Sandy Barbour, Director of Athletics, University of California, Berkeley

Kudos to my man Chris Chaney for pulling together such a spectacular event.
If you’re interested in the sports industry, I would highly recommend attending this FREE event that is OPEN to the public next year. Advice: Sign up quick when you hear about it.
