Background

About Ryan Maher

I’m a partnerships and enterprise sales leader with over 6 years of experience scaling SaaS ecosystems, closing six-figure brand deals, and managing high-impact sponsorships across the sports tech and digital media space. Most recently at DUPR, I lead national and international partner growth—expanding our club network from 105 to over 6,200 organizations and building a best-in-class, API-first SaaS platform through 176 integrated partnerships. I’ve successfully driven platform adoption, retention, and monetization strategies across pro leagues, youth sports orgs, and B2B tech partners. My work with Major League Pickleball (MLP)—including direct partnerships with teams—gave me hands-on experience with sports sponsorships, branded activations, and long-term growth planning. Whether I’m pitching enterprise solutions, refining outbound GTM campaigns, or aligning cross-functional teams, I focus on outcomes that scale. I'm passionate about creating high-value partnerships that not only drive revenue but also elevate community-based impact. Let’s connect if you’re working on anything in SaaS, sports, sponsorships, or platform growth—and looking to collaborate.
