Should Athletes Be Entrepreneurs?
In the very first episode of Courtside Capital, Mischa Zverev and Shanka Jayasinha dive straight into one of the biggest questions in sports and business: should athletes also be entrepreneurs?
They discuss:
• Why athletes are drawn to startups, fashion, and restaurants.
• The difference between being an investor vs. a founder.
• How business education during a career can make or break the transition.
• What sports and business share—and where they completely differ.
And in The Million Dollar Question, Mischa and Shanka ask which athlete they’d back in business today—and why.
