Lindenwood University Athletics is partnering with Teamworks Influencer and launching The Lindenwood NIL Exchange, a Name, Image, And Likeness (NIL) marketplace for Lindenwood student-athletes.

Teamworks Influencer, the industry leading sport technology platform will provide Lindenwood's student-athletes and supporters a best-in-class experience. 

The Lindenwood NIL Exchange enables individuals and businesses to work directly with Lindenwood student-athletes to connect, discuss and implement NIL opportunities. Student-athletes can review opportunities, accept deals and receive compensation all in one place.

"We are excited to offer our student-athletes another platform to connect with local businesses and build partnerships that benefit both sides," said VP of Intercollegiate Athletics Jason Coomer. "I fully support their ability to capitalize on their name, image, and likeness, not just as a path to personal growth, but as a way to drive revenue for local, regional, and national businesses. This initiative is a win-win, and I encourage St. Charles business owners to connect with our student-athletes in an effort to drive traffic to their stores."

Once a deal is agreed upon, the business can use The Lindenwood NIL Exchange to create a transaction that directly pays the student-athlete without any transaction fees and automates a disclosure to the Influencer Compliance Ledger.

"Lindenwood Athletics has built a forward-thinking NIL program that prioritizes education, compliance, and brand-building," said Teamworks Senior Account Executive Sean Kelly. "We're proud to power the Lindenwood NIL Exchange and help student-athletes unlock new NIL opportunities with the support of their local community and beyond."

The platform will work in conjunction with Lindenwood Athletics' internal team to provide student-athletes with NIL resources, including education, compliance, content sharing, personal branding and agreement disclosure, among others.
