The 2025 Moorad Symposium will feature speakers and discussions on sports finance, a rapidly changing landscape that has recently seen the infusion of institutional capital and private equity funding. We will examine different methods of investing in a new asset class—sports—that appears to be forever growing and recession-proof. Industry leaders, including investors, lawyers, bankers and analysts, will provide a detailed and fascinating look at this growing area.

The Pennsylvania Continuing Legal Education Board has approved this event for 3 Substantive CLE credits. Please note the event is open for general admission, but registration is required for CLE credit.
