Kismet Sports & Entertainment is a private investment house based in Vancouver, built for one arena of the world: sport. We pair more than forty years of operating history with institutional discipline.
Sports franchises are the scarcest institutional assets in the world. There are 32 NFL teams, 30 NBA teams and 20 clubs in the Premier League. They change hands rarely, and when they do, the leagues and the families selling them care as much about who is buying as what is being paid.
A franchise carries something no other asset does: the loyalty of a city. That loyalty is the most durable audience in the world, and it deserves owners who treat it as a trust.
We lead acquisitions where our operating history earns the governance seat, and the responsibility that comes with it.
We take patient minority positions alongside ownership groups we respect, with no ambition to disrupt what already works.
We invest alongside institutions, family offices and approved league capital on individual opportunities.
Selling owners and founding families who want a steward rather than a syndicate. Leagues and governing bodies that vet character as carefully as capital. Institutions, family offices and private principals who want exposure to sport with operators at the table.
Conversations begin privately and are handled by the partners themselves.
