Long Beach State Athletics To Partner With INFLCR Exchange To Boost NIL Access

9/27/2023 11:00:00 AM | General

The INFLCR Exchange program will help connect Long Beach State with businesses looking to engage with Beach student-athletes under new NIL policies.

LONG BEACH, Calif. – Long Beach State Athletics is excited to announce that the Long Beach Exchange has been officially launched, a platform in partnership with INFLCR that will provide an opportunity for Long Beach State student-athletes and interested outside parties to connect directly for endorsements and other business opportunities under the recent relaxation of NCAA policies relating to Name, Image and Likeness.
 
                "We're excited to expand our partnership with INFLCR, further enhancing business engagement for our student-athletes," said Long Beach State Executive Director of Athletics Bobby Smitheran. "Through this collaboration, we're redefining how our student-athletes create meaningful opportunities using their name, image, and likeness at Long Beach State."
 
                NIL opportunities and activities may include autographs, personal appearances, social media product promotions, running camps and clinics, and much more. After a quick online registration through the exchange's online portal, interested businesses, collectives and individuals will be granted access to a searchable database for all Beach student-athletes. They will then be able to reach out directly to any athlete or athletes of their choosing to begin NIL opportunity discussions. 

                The Long Beach NIL Exchange is a free platform that is available to all LBSU student-athletes. In addition to having the ability to work directly with businesses through the exchange, all athletes will also continue to have access to INFLCR's content delivery system in an existing partnership with Long Beach State Athletics. The system allows them to easily access photos, videos and other media content that bolsters their online presence. The system also provides valuable analytical data to help the student-athletes measure their audience engagement. 
 
                "We are proud to partner with Long Beach State Athletics to support the launch of the Long Beach Exchange," said INFLCR General Manager Sean Kelly. "This custom NIL marketplace will provide the platform for LBSU student-athletes to monetize their personal brand and connect them to NIL opportunities."
