Drone Racing League's Rachel Jacobson on starting a job in a pandemic and plotting a course for the future
SportsPro deputy editor Sam Carp talks to Rachel Jacobson, the new president of the Drone Racing League.
They discuss the challenges of starting a job in the middle of a global pandemic, the future prospects for the league, female representation in leadership roles in sport, and the lessons of a long spell at the NBA, including as SVP of global partnerships, at a time when the league closed US$1 billion in sponsorship deals.
