About

Wasserman is a full-service talent-representation and sports-marketing group that entered global football in the mid-2000s. It runs dedicated men’s and women’s football divisions, leverages data analytics and a worldwide scouting network, and offers in-house marketing and brand-building. Its differentiators include multi-sport leverage (NFL, NBA, Olympics) and deep commercial resources gained through the CSM and Brillstein acquisitions.
