Intelligence Brief
Durant’s ownership strategy connects investment capital with media production and commercial partnerships: Sports Business Journal documents that structure at 35V and Boardroom, while QSI’s PSG announcement explicitly combines equity with content, merchandise and international-market work. The Philadelphia Union deal also distinguishes ownership from optional future investment: its documented 5% purchase should not be reported as 10%. Across these ventures, disclosed participation establishes business exposure, but generally does not establish Durant’s personal investment amount, controlling authority or realized returns.
