Wave Sports: Athlete-driven content. Creator-ready space.

Where the content is fast and the space is on brand.

The Challenge

Fresh off landing on TIME’s 2025 Most Influential Companies list, Wave Sports + Entertainment-the production powerhouse behind smash hits like Podcast P, New Heights with Jason & Travis Kelce, and 7PM in Brooklyn-needed an NYC HQ where the minds behind these chart-topping shows could ideate, edit, and collaborate at warp speed.

With athlete-hosted podcasts generating ≈ 5 billion impressions in the past year and talent deals now topping $100 million, a generic office simply wouldn’t cut it. They required a space that:

• Sparks creativity and feels unmistakably on-brand
• Is turnkey-no months-long build-outs
• Sits steps from major transit to keep A-list athletes and collaborators flowing through

Their content moves fast. Their space had to keep up.

The Solution

Nomad secured a high-design, footprint in Midtown South that lets big ideas flow:

• Open collaboration zones plus private focus rooms for writers, producers, and editors
• Lofty ceilings and daylight that energize the team (and look great on Zoom)
• Built-in fiber, secure storage, and walls prepped for brandable backdrops
• Close to Flatiron for friction-free guest access

To eliminate downtime, Nomad:

• Furnished the entire floor overnight with in-house inventory
• Activated Wi-Fi, cleaning, and custom signage within 48 hours
• Negotiated flexible terms so Wave can scale its NYC brain-trust as new shows launch

The Results

Wave now operates from a creator-ready NYC HQ-a workspace that fuels the thinkers behind shows reaching millions every week:

• An environment engineered to keep Wave atop podcast charts-and TIME’s influential-company lists
• Fully operational, brand-forward hub for writers, producers, and editors
• Immediate occupancy with zero lag in content production
• Lease terms that flex with Wave’s explosive growth trajectory
