Cal State East Bay Athletics Announces the Launch of Pioneers Exchange
Cal State East Bay Athletics is taking its student-athlete NIL program to the next level with the announcement today of a significant expansion of its partnership with industry leader INFLCR. The Pioneers Exchange is a powerful tool to help connect interested businesses, collectives or individuals with Pioneer student-athletes to accelerate and streamline the process of generating business activity related to their Name, Image, and Likeness.
Through the Pioneers Exchange, student-athletes benefit from INFLCR's proven technology that allows businesses to access a school-specific directory to filter and contact specific student-athletes by team, sport, and many other options, including automated NIL transaction compliance and tax reporting. For student-athletes, all NIL business conversations can live in their existing INFLCR account with automated payments and streamlined reporting for tax purposes, all free to student-athletes.
"The launch of the Pioneers Exchange is a commitment to our vision of building meaningful NIL opportunities for our student-athletes", said Allison Kern, Director of Athletics. "As a Division II program, providing our student-athletes a pathway to success for NIL is an exciting endeavor not just for our athletes but for Cal State East Bay and the City of Hayward and its surrounding communities. We look forward to engagement from the business community engaging with our student-athletes to expand their reach. We're excited to take NIL and our INFLCR partnership to the next level with the Pioneers Exchange. We look forward to seeing our student-athletes benefit tremendously from this powerful resource."
