Reliance joins hands with US sports co IMG Worldwide

As we had often come back to discussing economic benefits/impact of sports I thought it was about time for an economic discussion forum.

Reliance joins hands with US sports co IMG Worldwide

Post by usaindian »

IMG will make scholarships available to the most promising athletes. Such investments can ultimately provide a windfall for IMG, which gains an inside track on representing the rising athletes who train at its academies. To jump start its talent development, Messrs. Forstmann and Ambani will award scholarships to between 20 and 30 Indian athletes and send them to IMG Academies in Florida this fall, where they will train with U.S. coaches.
