Klein EDGE | Global Opportunities

Sports have always played a unique role in bringing people together, from the ancient Olympic Games to modern times when its power to unite is more crucial than ever.

In London, a city where sports teams and their fan bases are deeply intertwined, you'll witness firsthand the differences in how American and British sports organizations engage their audiences. As U.S. media and sports leagues continue to invest in the UK and European markets, there’s an increasing need for professionals who understand the nuances of global sports coverage and engagement.

Throughout this program, you’ll have the opportunity to experience live and recorded sports media events, explore the promotion and preparation behind matches and connect with industry professionals in Philadelphia and London. You’ll gain insight into the provincial nature of London’s clubs and the unparalleled fan engagement that is central to the city's culture. With new regulations set to enhance fan access and oversee club management and American investors increasingly involved in major league clubs, this is a pivotal time to explore these dynamics.

The week-long trip to London over fall break will deepen your understanding of global sports culture and provide valuable opportunities for networking and career exploration in the sports media industry.
