Guest Speakers
Open doors and friendly handshakes. The Warsaw Center offers students unprecedented entrée into all aspects of the sports industry. This is reflected in our annual MBA study tours as well as in the visits from hundreds of business leaders from every aspect of the sports industry, who come to share their insights with our students in workshops and lectures throughout the year.
What motivates these industry movers and shakers to become friends of the program? The reasons are as varied as their backgrounds. Some are program alumni, while others are keyed to the center's role as a top incubator of up-and-coming sports business talent.
These are a few of the teams, companies, and brands whose representatives have spoken or led workshops on campus in recent years.
