On this episode of the SeventySix Capital Sports Leadership Show, Wayne Kimmel's guest is Rob Ponger, CEO of Perfect Game. Ponger was named CEO of Perfect Game in 2022. Upon joining Perfect Game, Ponger quickly enhanced and expanded the company's presence, reach and revenue. In concert with PG's Chairman Rick Thurman, Ponger expanded Perfect Game's business model beyond its core of youth events and services to include a proprietary technology platform (PG TECH), OTT live streaming service (PGTV), apparel line and state of the art training support. Additionally, in a short span of time, Perfect Game enhanced its ability to introduce more youth to baseball and softball by expanding its presence with offices in new regions of the country, developing and managing new best-in-class baseball facilities and expanding into international markets. Ponger spent nearly 20 years at IMG where, as CFO of IMG Media, he provided financial and investment oversight, led mergers and acquisitions, directed corporate restructuring and drove business development through the creation and implementation of strategic and tactical initiatives. Through that process, Ponger helped position IMG as one of the world's most successful entertainment and sports agencies. Over a seven-year span (2008-14), Ponger played an integral role in leading the finance group at IMG as senior vice president of strategic planning and financial operations, highlighted by the sale of IMG to WME/Silver Lake for $2.4 billion. Ponger co-led the successful sales process for IMG and reported directly to the CEO of the company during the transaction. Ponger is a 1992 graduate of Bernard Baruch College where he attained his bachelor's degree in accounting and passed all parts of the Uniform CPA exam. He currently resides in Long Island, N.Y. with his wife, Francesca and sons, Dylan and Alexander.

Ioris Francini is Co-President of agency giant WME | IMG. He joined IMG, the granddaddy of the sports agency world, in the early 2000s through its Trans World International events arm. In 2007, he was made Head of Sales for the EMEA region for IMG Media. By 2010, he had been made a Senior Vice President and Head of Sales worldwide at IMG Media, and in 2012 he was made an Executive Vice President with the added responsibility of heading up acquisitions, a not inconsiderable show of trust given the risk inherent in rights arbitrage. When the William Morris Endeavour (WME) agency bought IMG in December 2013, Francini was on the rise again, becoming president of IMG’s events and media division, before, last year, taking a new role as Co-President of the whole shebang. In a wide-ranging discussion, Francini covers: - Last year's acquisition of the UFC in a reported $4 billion deal. How will WME | IMG make a return? - How the decision-making process works at the global agency, between himself and the organisation's other Co-President, Mark Shapiro, and its high profile Co-CEOs, Ari Emanuel and Patrick Whitesell; - A new method for doing business in China: WME | IMG's 2.0 approach to the region; - OTT, Amazon, DAZN, and BAMTech; the blurring of the traditional media rights and distribution boundaries; and the unbalancing of an industry; - How the agency is progressing with its relationships in cycling, its commercial link-up with Giro d'Italia organiser RCS Sport, and its plans to re-engineer cycling's early season spring classics; - How WME | IMG shook up Euroleague basketball and reaped the rewards; - The rumours that WME | IMG is heading for an IPO.

IMG Media Head of North America runs a conversational gamut with Leaders Editorial Director James Emmett. "This was way too much fun," said Hillary Mandel, politely, as the recording of this podcast drew to a close. And she was right. Mandel is one of the most engaging agency figures in the game. As Head of North America for IMG Media, Mandel is tasked with the marketing and distribution tens of thousands of hours of sports content every year. Our conversation took place in IMG's Hell's Kitchen office, soon to be vacated for new, combined digs in Flatiron, at the end of May this year, on the eve of the Copa America Centenario, for which IMG had distributed media rights internationally. Her landmark deals include Wimbledon's move to ESPN in the US, and the Open Championship's tie-up with NBC. The wide-ranging discussion covers the impact of these deals, plus: - IMG as a content business - The new WME ownership era - Scandal and how to guard against malpractice - The NHL's opportunity to catch up with its international ambitions - Gender equality in the sports industry and the responsibility to create balanced working cultures - The nuts and bolts of deal-making, and how to keep people onside - New York, New York- where to go, what to eat, and who to see Leaders Week takes place this year from 4th to 7th October at Stamford Bridge in London.
