WHO
WE ARE

Inspiring and enabling the business of sports to do good and do well.

OUR
STORY

In 2020, our co-founders Neill Duffy and Fabien Paget united under their belief that the sports industry was far behind in its responsibility to drive positive impact for people and planet. They set out to realize and utilize the industry’s role to solve the world’s toughest challenges, merging their expertise in sports marketing and athlete management to create 17 Sport.

With a name inspired by the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals—and to Goal 17 in particular—our organization has been driven by a profound belief in the power of partnerships to ignite systemic change since its very beginning.

Now primarily operating in Europe and the United States, we have built a global team of experts comprised of individuals who have been at the forefront of the purpose revolution in sports and business for the last 15 years.
