Sports as a Growth Engine in Los Angeles

The latest Sports in the Los Angeles Basin Economic Impact Study by the LA Sports Council and LAEDC highlights how deeply sports drive growth across Southern California and how much opportunity lies ahead for companies ready to be part of it.

In 2024, the Los Angeles sports industry generated:
$12.1 billion in total economic output
$9.7 billion in labor income
92,970 jobs supported across professional and collegiate sports
$726 million in state and local tax revenues

Major upgrades such as the Intuit Dome, the Crypto.com Arena renovations, and record attendance across leagues have reinforced Los Angeles as a global leader in sports, infrastructure, and entertainment. The coming years bring even more momentum with the 2026 FIFA World Cup, 2027 Super Bowl, and 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games, all using existing venues and delivering lasting economic value for the region.

At Quartermaster California, we view this momentum as a clear signal of opportunity. Companies expanding to the U.S. can connect with California’s growing sports and events economy through market research, partnerships, and U.S. team development. Our goal is to help founders turn opportunity into a lasting presence in the American market.
