Sports Industry

Our KPMG Sports professionals help leagues, franchises, teams, and venues reach higher levels of performance and enrich the fan experience.

The future of sports is now. Our dedicated advisors are ready to share decades of experience to help sports organizations of all kinds achieve greater business success, reach new levels of efficiency, and form stronger bonds with fans.

KPMG works with sports programs and venues both nationally and globally in 18 countries. We’ve worked with leagues to manage complex scheduling issues with automation, helped franchises become more profitable through sound business planning, and advised venues on innovative approaches to satisfy event attendees. And, we’ve gained tremendous sports insights from working for many years with professional sponsorships such as the PGA and LPGA.

We bring together the resources KPMG has to offer - from tax strategies and audit to technology and consulting - to serve the holistic needs of the sports industry.
