USOPC Mulls Billion-Dollar Stake Sale Before 2028 Games

The US Olympic and Paralympic Committee is quietly planning to sell a stake in Team USA to private investors. The non-profit relies entirely on sponsorships because it gets zero government funding. Board minutes show the new commercial entity will be called United States Olympic and Paralympic Ventures. Investment bank Raine Group is advising the deal which could be worth billions of dollars. And here is the catch. Fifa tried a similar plan to sell twenty billion dollars in stakes and sparked a massive global revolt. Sarah Hirshland says preliminary talks have brought encouraging feedback from potential partners. The timing lines up directly with the upcoming twenty twenty eight Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.
