Chicago Sports & Entertainment Signs Greg Louganis, Who Wants To Be "More Ambitious"

Chicago Sports & Entertainment Partners has closed a deal to represent Gold Medal-winning U.S. diver Greg Louganis. The former Olympian had previously been represented by Massachusetts-based APB. With the '16 Rio Games nearly a year away and HBO set to air a Louganis-focused documentary "Back on Board" on Aug. 4, Louganis wanted to be more ambitious. Steven Karash, who manages Louganis and will partner with CSEP in the deal, said, “Olympic sponsorships and speaking engagements are synergistic, especially between now and the Olympics in 2016. We’re very excited to get Greg back out there." CSEP Partner Jeannie Goldstein added, "It is an honor to be working with an amazing Olympian who represents such strength and grace and has made an impact on the world beyond sport. Greg is ready to partner with brands that share these ideals as we head to Rio."
