^{Your backstage pass for your career in sports, media & entertainment. Brought to you by Arena - where powerful industry relationships and opportunities begin and grow.}

When our friends at SOBOL renamed Geno's Steaks to "Steakquon's" for Madden 26, they created magic: viral moments and lines around the block. They turn brand launches into cultural phenomena. Next up? Super Bowl activations. Explore at sobol.solutions.

Your next big opportunity probably won’t come from a job board or a cold message. It comes from the right relationship. That’s what we built Arena PowerMatch for.

Each week, PowerMatch connects professionals in sports, media, and entertainment with curated 1:1 matches aligned to your goals, not random intros.

Beta participants join a vetted community of professionals where insights, opportunities, and introductions flow. You’ll also gain access to 3 free months of PowerMatch once the beta is over.
