Venable’s Sports Law Group presents a timely program examining the evolving landscape of name, image, and likeness (NIL) in college athletics. Designed for athletic departments, university leadership, in-house counsel, and coaches, this session delivers practical guidance for institutions navigating rapid regulatory change and increasing legal complexity.
This focused discussion will cover:
- The fundamentals of NIL
- How NIL rights apply to college athletes
- NCAA rules—how we got here and where things stand today
- The landmark House v. NCAA settlement and its implications
- Pending federal legislation and potential regulatory shifts
- Key NCAA-related litigation and the legal issues on the horizon
Accessible to non-lawyers yet substantive enough for compliance professionals and legal teams, this presentation provides attendees with meaningful legal insight and actionable takeaways for understanding NIL-related risk and opportunity within their institutions.
