Gateway Sports & Entertainment launches U.S. Office

We are delighted to share some exciting news from Gateway as we announce our expansion into the United States.

With London as our HQ - we’ve extended to the sunshine of Miami, Florida 🌴 and we cannot wait to help athletes and brands achieve their visions.

Deji Akande, Gateway Sports CEO & Founder shared “Over the last few years I’ve had the privilege to build relationships in the U.S. and with it being the home of sport and entertainment, I believe an agency of our ambition must operate in the biggest market for our industry”.

So why the United States? And why now?

  • A number of Gateway clients are now based in the U.S. - and we have exciting news to come as we build our U.S. athlete roster!

  • There’s huge years of major sporting events such as the 2026 FIFA World Cup and of course the LA 2028 Olympics on the horizon.

  • Sports & entertainment in the states is on an all time high - from the year on year powerhouse professional leagues, to the innovative new championships / break away league formats - our favourite sports are only getting bigger and bigger.

  • Collegiate athletes are changing the game and re-creating the meaning of student athletes - with opportunities around NIL (Name, Image & Likeness) college athletes need athlete marketing expertise to maximise these new avenues.

  • Brands & athletes are forming deeper and more meaningful partnerships and we believe we have the passion and expertise to add strategic value for both for talent & brand communities.

The time is now to double down, keep believing and keep striving to create the next generation sports & entertainment agency.

To sit alongside this huge news, it’s also a pleasure to welcome Leana Edwards, who joins Gateway as are our US Athlete Marketing Manager, based in Miami!

Leana will play a pivotal role in amplifying and unearthing opportunities for our talent in the U.S. and with her sports media background will be a huge support as we amplify our athletes' stories to brands & fans across the world.
