ABOUT THE TPI TRANSITION ACADEMY

Who We Are?

WHO WE ARE

The Players’ Impact originated as a group of athletes interested in investing in startups. As its community grew, it pivoted and expanded to focus on athlete entrepreneurs interested in more than investing, becoming hub for business-minded pro seeking to achieve business success, preserve and build wealth, and leave a legacy beyond their sports careers.

Transition Sports & Entertainment is a strategic and creative agency specializing in work with athletes and sport and entertainment-focused companies.  Transition’s team features a collection of experts who have found proven success within various professional categories including business, financial, marketing and communications, social media, and visual arts.  This year, Transition acquired SporTech Ventures, a global sports technology firm which empowers athletes through investment, incubation, and experiential opportunities, to complement its existing capabilities.
