Media rights are the largest single line in most sports businesses and the one most exposed to piracy. We structure and negotiate these agreements for a market where digital, satellite and short form rights are sold separately, monetised on different timelines, and infringed simultaneously the day a broadcast airs. Getting the split, the territory carve-outs and the enforcement mechanics wrong doesn't just cost revenue on paper. It costs it in real time, every time a stream goes up before your lawyers do. We draft to close that gap, not just to describe it.
