ABOUT RAKAN

Built through sport.

FOUNDER IMAGE

Arc Sports was founded by Rakan Alireza, a Saudi Olympian with experience across elite sport, consulting, business and advisory.

Competing at the highest level taught him that ambition alone is rarely enough. Behind every result are people, systems, decisions and an ability to keep moving when the path is not straightforward.

That same lesson followed him beyond competition, through building, advising and working within different parts of the sports ecosystem.

Good ideas matter. Getting them done matters more.

But the ambition behind Arc goes further. Sport has given Rakan passion, purpose, a career, lifelong relationships and the opportunity to represent his country. Arc is also a way to give back to the world that gave him so much, by helping build stronger projects, organizations and opportunities for the people coming through sport next.

Today, Rakan brings an athlete's perspective, a consultant's way of thinking and an operator's bias toward action to the projects Arc takes on.
