The Villanova Sports Business Conference (VSBC) brings Villanova students together with leaders already working in the sports industry. Held every spring at Finneran Pavilion, the conference features speakers from organizations like the NBA, NFL, NHL, MLB, and MLB, with panels covering sports media, sales, marketing, operations, and analytics.
The Villanova Sports Analytics Club is proud to be an official partner of VSBC, and that partnership makes it one of the biggest professional development opportunities available to our members. It is a chance to hear directly from people working in sports analytics and the wider sports business world, build real industry connections, and get a clearer picture of what a career in the field actually looks like.
VSAC’s Role on the VSBC Executive Board
VSAC’s partnership with VSBC goes beyond attendance. Several members of our own executive board help run the conference itself. COO Solomon Piper serves as VSBC’s President and CAO Isabella Chmil is Vice President. Marketing Chair Aiden Fleming works as the conference’s Finance Manager, while Outreach Chair Owen Roberts and Member Engagement Chair John Morris share the role of Operations and Logistics Managers. With VSAC leadership sitting on VSBC’s executive board, it allows the two organizations to stay closely connected and our members get an even more direct line into the conference.
