Athletes Unite Conference

We support current and former athletes

Financial Empowerment in Sports

The Athletes Unite Conference stands as a pivotal event in the athletic community, bringing together current and former athletes nationwide. As college sports undergoes unprecedented transformations, our conference equips attendees with essential tools, tips, and guidance for brand monetization and navigating life beyond sports. In addition to facilitating connections with hiring managers and recruiters from our sponsoring companies to support diversity and inclusion initiatives in the workforce, we prioritize providing athletes access to vital financial resources. We understand the importance of financial stability during transition periods, and our conference aims to empower athletes with the knowledge and resources they need to secure their financial futures.

Furthermore, we recognize the significance of community in an athlete's journey. That's why we place a strong emphasis on connecting transitioning athletes with other athletes. We believe that a supportive community can make all the difference during times of transition, fostering a network of solidarity, understanding, and shared experiences among athletes.

Our conference features discussions and sessions focused on connecting athletes to mental health resources. We understand the unique challenges that athletes may face in maintaining their mental well-being, and we are committed to providing them with the support and resources they need to thrive both on and off the field.
