^{Arena is the go-to newsletter for sports, media & entertainment professionals. Each week, we curate the top events, insights & people to know to help you stay connected to new opportunities.}

Only three days left to apply for Arena's Summer Cohort…will you be one of them?

80% of executive roles are never publicly advertised. Most opportunities from partnerships to advisory board positions and speaking engagements come down to who knows who. Networking works, but the infrastructure is broken. Arena fixes that with three weekly curated intros to vetted leaders across sports, media & entertainment. You see their background, goals, and how they’re open to collaborate upfront - you decide where it goes from there.

Application window closes this Friday, Aug 14th.
