Since its founding in 2020, Angel City FC quickly became one of the top professional sports properties globally, celebrated for commercial innovation and a mission-driven approach. With Willow Bay and Bob Iger announced as controlling owners, the club became the most valuable women’s sports team in the world. President Julie Uhrman aimed to leverage this transition to attract top-tier talent to strengthen fan engagement, revenue, and innovation in the NWSL.

Entering their fourth season, Angel City FC needed a commercially-savvy executive capable of transforming the club’s business operations.

Elevate led the search for a commercially-savvy, strategic executive to transform Angel City FC’s business operations. The process identified Laura Flynn, a highly respected leader with extensive NBA experience and a deep passion for growing women’s sports. As Chief Revenue Officer, Laura brings the right blend of credibility, expertise, and hands-on leadership to advance the club’s commercial strategies, scale its operations, and solidify Angel City FC’s position as a global leader in women’s sports.
