College sports may take a break in the summer, but our partner experiences do not. Live from Salt Lake City, our University of Utah Athletics team is keeping the momentum going with unforgettable summer activations. These exclusive events give our partners a rare, behind-the-scenes look at what it means to be a Ute for the day, even in the off-season. See two of our most recent events below ⬇️ 🔴 Old Dominion Freight Line brought 40 clients and team members for an insider's look at Rice-Eccles Stadium, featuring commentary from Offensive Coordinator Jason Beck, Athletic Director Mark Harlan, and “Voice of the Utes” Bill Riley. 🔴 KeyBank hosted 45 employees, clients, and their families for a VIP experience featuring a field day at the practice football facilities, complete with a private tour and an exclusive fireside chat with Coach Shaw. Whether it is gameday or the off-season, our partner facilities are built for memorable brand activations and access like no other. #GoUtes

JMI Sports in the News! 📘💡🗞️ Last week, our CEO, Erik Judson, and USD’s Kimya Massey sat down with San Diego Business Journal to discuss the impact of our newly announced multimedia rights partnership with University of San Diego, sharing how this collaboration is set not only to drive significant revenue for USD, but reshape the sports landscape in San Diego by creating a unified market for collegiate athletics. “My hope is that we can really sell the importance and strength of college athletics in this community, rather than just focusing on individual assets at each school… We're only limited by our great ideas and our hard work to get it done. I truly believe this will be a tremendous outcome for USD, and I’m personally committed to making sure that happens.” – Erik Judson This is just the beginning of something big for JMI Sports, USD, and the San Diego community.

Last week, we teamed up with our friends at San Diego State Athletics, UC San Diego, and University of San Diego to put on “Beyond the Game: Exploring the Future of NIL,” a town hall conversation around how San Diego’s collegiate athletics leaders are navigating the ever-evolving world of NIL. The panel brought together the athletic directors from our three San Diego partner schools, plus JMI Sports’ own Pete Thuresson, to share insights on how we can collaborate to support student-athletes both on and off the field. To John David Wicker, Earl Edwards, and Kimya Massey: It is always a pleasure to speak alongside this triple-threat of dynamic minds in San Diego sports. A big thank you to the University Club San Diego for hosting and to everyone who joined us for a thoughtful, forward-looking discussion on what is next for college sports in San Diego! 🙌
