The SAIS Mentorship Program is back for 2024! 🎉
The SAIS Mentorship Program helps connect South Asian sports business professionals across the U.S. and Canada. Over the course of 4 weeks, mentees have the opportunity to learn from some of the industry’s leading South Asian executives making waves in sports.
📆 This year’s program runs from April 22 - May 17.
✅ Want to be a mentee? Apply today at sainsports.com/mentorship or click the link in bio! Applications close on April 5th at 11:59pm EST!
Note that applications are not a guarantee of acceptance to the program. Acceptance will be based on quantity of applications and interest areas. We do our very best to match mentors and mentees pursuing similar career fields.

We made a new website (still sainsports.com) that includes a new digital directory of all SAIS members! I just sent a network wide email to all existing members. Please use the email address the email was sent to in order to reset your password at this link. If you did not receive an email and you are a member as of April 2023, please use the email you used to sign up and hit forgot password.
Once you log in, you can edit your profile and search the directory. By default, your email address is not visible to other members unless you change this setting in the profile page.
As always, it is free to be a member and to access your own profile and we have a paid ("professional") membership that allows you to access all of our members. We hope that this directory will help our SAIS network more easily connect with each other. The paid membership fee helps us cover the costs of maintaining the site. If you feel you have trouble paying the full amount, please email me.
We also have a discord we'd like to start using for all things SAIS (jobs, networking events, opportunities, questions). Please contribute to it and use it as a resource.
Email info@sainsports.com if you are having any issues. #network #southasian #sports

Aaron has such a cool job! He’s currently in school for his graduate degree.
If you’re interested in working with athletes on their performance and health be sure to listen to Aaron’s advice - he’s been through a lot on his journey in the industry. #southasiansinsports #sports #careeradvice #iglive #chicago
