InsideOut Sports + Entertainment is a Los Angeles-based independent event production company founded in 2004 by former world No. 1 and Hall of Fame tennis player Jim Courier and his business partner Jon Venison.
The company has carved a niche in creating and managing sporting and entertainment events. One of its notable properties is The Pickleball Slam, a tournament that has gained significant attention. Another key asset is the Pro Padel League, the first professional padel league in North America. Through these events, InsideOut has established itself as a key player in the rapidly growing markets of pickleball and padel.
In a strategic move to expand its capabilities, GSE Worldwide, a sports and entertainment marketing and talent management agency, acquired InsideOut Sports and Entertainment. This acquisition is set to enhance GSE's live event production capabilities and further solidify its position in the industry.
