T.E.A.M Houston - Soccer Summit #4 - Media & Content Opportunity in Houston
THE MEDIA & CONTENT OPPORTUNITY IN HOUSTON SOCCER Houston is home to one of the most dynamic - yet underexposed - soccer markets in the United States. Behind the headlines lies a fast-growing ecosystem of players, fans, creators, and businesses that remains largely untapped from a media and content perspective. With over 200,000–240,000 active soccer participants, a 44% Hispanic population, and a social ecosystem reaching ~6.6 million people, soccer is not a niche sport in Houston - it is the mainstream. Yet, it receives only ~4% of English-language sports media coverage, and entire segments such as youth soccer operate with virtually zero dedicated media infrastructure. In this Soccer Summit T.E.A.M. Houston brings this opportunity into focus - connecting insights, creators, and businesses ready to act. What to Expect 1) Opening Remarks: Setting the Stage T.E.A.M. Houston will kick off with key insights and headline findings from its "Houston Soccer Media & Content Opportunity Report", highlighting the scale of the opportunity and why the timing is now. During the event, T.E.A.M. Houston will officially release the Houston Soccer Media & Content Opportunity Report. This extensive data-driven report outlines where the gaps - and the biggest opportunities - exist for both creators and businesses, and is available exclusively to attendees. 2) Four High-Impact Mini Workshops (20–30 mins, simultaneous) Focused, practical sessions, moderated by industry experts in these areas, designed to give you immediate knowledge, tools and insights: * Podcasting (Audio & Video) (tell your story) * Short-Form Video Storytelling (with the mobile phone) * AI in Content Creation (creativity & productivity) * Influencers & Creators Ecosystems (let others speak) 3) Main Panel: Industry Perspectives A curated panel of top experts from Houston’s soccer and media landscape will explore where the real opportunities lie in soccer content - today and in the years ahead.
