In recent times, the Women Abundance Collective held a networking event at the Santa Monica Proper Hotel in Los Angeles. The event drew a crowd of around 200 attendees and was catered to high-net-worth female investors. The aim of this event was to introduce participants to the sports asset class while also highlighting opportunities within women’s sports.
During the event, Neha Kumar, a partner at WAC, emphasized the crucial role that women can play in shaping the future of women’s sports by investing in female-led ventures. Keynote speaker Kara Nortman, co-founder of Angel City and managing partner at Monarch Collective, discussed her own experiences in women’s sports investing and highlighted the growth potential within the industry.
A panel discussion followed, featuring prominent figures such as AMI GALANI, Gabby Reece, Carol Stiff, and Kate Veronneau. The panel focused on progress made in women’s sports, storytelling around female athletes, and the bright future ahead for women’s teams and leagues.
The event attracted a mix of individuals from those seeking an introduction to the sports business to industry insiders including Leonard Armato, Jay Adya, Erin Storck, Assia Grazioli-Venier, Tobin Heath, Stuart McLean and Jenna Trabulus. With a strong focus on female empowerment and investment in women’s sports, the Women Abundance Collective event provided a platform for discussions and connections within the industry.
