Our Vision
To create maximum impact for athletes, helping them lead the NIL industry and beyond with excellence and setting new standards for client services, care, and management.
Kevin Carr, Founder, CEO, and Principal of PRO2CEO, LLC, is a leader in sports business and professional development with over 25 years of experience. His journey to founding PRO2CEO was sparked by a personal mission—watching his older brother struggle to navigate the complexities of a sports career ignited a deep passion in Kevin to ensure others could avoid similar pitfalls. This experience motivated him to create a firm that specializes in helping elite athletes, artists, and organizations not just transition in their careers but thrive in the business world beyond.
PRO2CEO's mission has always been about more than just professional success—it's about creating a future that blends business acumen, leadership, and social impact. This philosophy is the foundation for SA2CEO, a program that Kevin developed to guide athletes on their journey from the playing field to becoming CEOs of their own brands and careers. SA2CEO exists to bridge the gap between athletic achievement and business success, offering a comprehensive approach to career development that equips athletes with the skills they need to thrive off the field.
Kevin’s vision for SA2CEO is rooted in the belief that athletes should be empowered to own their future, not just as competitors but as business leaders. The program is designed to give athletes a roadmap to success, focusing on education, business management, personal branding, and leadership development. Kevin’s commitment to helping athletes leverage their opportunities in sports as a launching pad for long-term career success is what makes SA2CEO a truly transformative program. Through his leadership, SA2CEO offers athletes the tools they need to not only navigate the NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) landscape but also build a lasting legacy beyond their sport.
With SA2CEO, Kevin Carr continues to lead by example, combining his deep understanding of the challenges athletes face with a clear vision for how they can turn those challenges into opportunities for growth and success.
