NESN was ranked the No. 8 most valuable sports business brand for 2014 by The Forbes Fab 40. It’s the third consecutive year NESN has appeared on the list, with NESN ranking No. 9 and No. 8 in 2012 and 2013, respectively.
Forbes annually lists the 10 most valuable sports brands in each of four categories — businesses, events, teams and athletes — and quantifies the earning power of each brand relative to its competitors. Reebok, Under Armour, Nike, Adidas and ESPN were among the few sports business brands to finish ahead of NESN for 2014.
NESN, home of the Boston Red Sox and the Boston Bruins, strives to be the preeminent regional sports network in the country. Forbes’ recognition further highlights that commitment.
