As the business of sports continues to evolve, Brooklyn FC is stepping into a larger role within the region’s economic and professional landscape. On April 21, 2026, the club will host Brooklyn Business Night at Maimonides Park, bringing together executives, founders, and community leaders for an evening that blends networking with live competition as Brooklyn FC faces Sacramento Republic FC.
The event arrives at a moment when athlete‑driven influence is reshaping how companies hire, partner, and invest. That shift is being tracked and accelerated by Athletes Make The Best™, a platform that elevates the economic and workforce impact of athletes and athlete‑led companies. Its flagship publication, the Athletes Make The Best™ Top 100, has become a benchmark for understanding how athlete leadership is shaping where people work, live, stay, and play.
This year, Athletes Make The Best™ has expanded its reach through a strategic partnership with Sports Power Infrastructure, a talent intelligence platform that uses sports as a distribution engine to certify workforce and suppliers for infrastructure markets. Together, the two organizations are building a pipeline that connects athlete talent and athlete‑owned enterprises to some of the country’s most critical economic sectors. Their collaboration underscores a growing recognition: athletes are not just cultural figures but catalysts for workforce development, supplier diversity, and community investment.
Brooklyn Business Night taps directly into that momentum. Attendees will participate in a dedicated networking hour from 5:00 to 6:30 PM before kickoff at 7:00 PM, with tickets including networking access, food, one alcoholic beverage, and admission to the match. Suites are also available for companies looking to host clients or employees in a more curated environment.
For Brooklyn FC, the event is more than a match‑day activation. It signals the club’s commitment to serving as a hub for business growth, community connection, and the expanding ecosystem of athlete‑powered economic opportunity.
