The intersection of sports, entertainment, and real estate is one of the most dynamic — and complex — areas of economic development. Major venues and entertainment destinations create enormous economic impact, but they require specialized expertise to finance, site, entitle, and execute successfully.
RISE has worked alongside some of the most recognized names in sports and entertainment — including the Washington Commanders, 35 Ventures (the family office of Kevin Durant), and Sphere — bringing our full suite of advisory capabilities to projects where the stakes are highest and the challenges most complex.
We understand the unique dynamics of public financing for sports and entertainment facilities, the community relations challenges these projects often face, and the state and local policy environment that can make or break a venue deal. Our goal is to align the interests of team owners, developers, government partners, and community stakeholders behind a shared vision.
