espnW has hired Susie Piotrkowski as its new Vice President, helping shape the future of the vertical, including new production studios.
“What an incredible privilege to work in women’s sports at such an important time. I enter this role inspired by those who created espnW, largely women who established its foundation at a time when very few recognized women’s sports as a viable business opportunity,” Piotrkowski said. “I couldn’t be more excited to call those trailblazers colleagues and I am incredibly motivated in continuing to push progress forward at ESPN. Women’s sports to the moon!”
Piotrkowski comes to espnW after working as the head of Women’s Team Sports for Octagon. She also previously worked as the Vice President of Sponsorship Sales for the National Women’s Soccer League.
“ESPN’s commitment to women’s sports is unwavering, and Susie’s extensive experience leading its growth across various landscapes make her the perfect addition to the leadership team at espnW,” said ESPN Head of Sports Business Development & Innovation Mark Walker, who will work closely with Piotrkowski. “We are delighted to welcome her to the team and eager to see her further expand the espnW brand.”
