A FULL MANAGEMENT TALENT AGENCY FOR SPORTIVE AND NON-SPORTIVE TALENTS

The Agency was formed by a team of former athletes, lawyers and marketing specialists who know how the life of a professional athlete can be. 

The Agency knows exactly how to give sports stars the freedom to focus on playing sport.
By bringing together all of the management services that an athlete needs into one place,
The Agency lets you concentrate on being your best.

Our aim is to support our talents and their direct environment on all levels of life. We are a full management talent agency for athletes and people in the entertainment business. Any talent has a place in our management. The Agency is a full-service management agency and we want the best interest of our talents on the short and the long term, so that they only have to focus on their careers.

We cover the needs of our talents with our 7 departments: Marketing & Sponsoring, Legal & Risk, Tax & Estate Planning, Finance & Investments, Consulting, Coaching & Guidance and Concierge Service. 

The Agency wants to be a support for its talents and their direct environment on all levels of life.

OUR SERVICES

MARKETING & SPONSORING

We will develop an individual strategy and brand identity for every talent. Based on the athletes profile, we will seek the right partners and brands to link each individual.

FINANCE & INVESTMENTS

We guide athletes in their financial growth. More significant portfolios will be handled in close relation to a partner chosen with the athlete.

LEGAL & RISK

We’ll have legal aid inhouse for minor cases and advice. For more significant cases and contract deals, we will rely on our partner network.

COACHING & GUIDANCE

We want to be a safe-heaven for our athletes to communicate outside their everyday surroundings when needed, through our network of current and ex-athletes.

TAX & ESTATE PLANNING

Earning money is one side, structuring money is as important. Therefore we will work out a tax planning to optimize your investments, contracts, real estate and other assets.

CONSULTING

We have proven expertise in several areas. We look for solutions to improve the daily lives of our talents. We provide advice, guidance or recommendations on what to do.

CONCIERGE SERVICE

We support our talents with a variety of tasks such as restaurant reservations, hotel bookings, arranging various services, recommending locations and booking transport.

Our ideal client is a young talent that signs at the age of 16 to be supported during their career and who is still a client of us when they have reached the age of 66 to manage their investment portfolio and structure their after-career life.

MAXIMILIEN PEETERS

FOUNDER & CEO

"After a career as a hockey player I entered the entrepreneurial world. While running a marketing agency La Movida and a design agency Elle & M’s, I started with Alexandre Hauben, Niets, the company above Botaniets, the zero alcohol gin. But something was missing, a company with a link to sports, my first true love. So The Agency was born during the Covid 19 pandemic. I wanted to assemble people who already performed in their line of business, and get them together in one company."

ESTATE & FINANCIAL PLANNER

“Among other things, we want to watch over the development of each athlete’s future, for example, by carefully weighing all the pros and cons of each investment offer for each individual athlete, or have other investments in mind, so that they can enjoy it after their relatively short careers. This way, our athletes can focus on their sport without any worries and relax with their family and friends in the little time they have left.”
