About
Niesant Alvares works across the operating and investing sides of sport. He is the Founder and CEO of Ness Sport Global, where he leads initiatives designed to create commercial growth, strategic clarity, and cross-border opportunity within the sports industry.
His background spans sports advisory, high-performance ecosystem design, cricket operations, player development, and the scaling of global sports business models. He has worked with leagues, franchises, federations, and teams across India, Malta, Sweden, the Caribbean, Nepal, and Australia.
Alongside his operational roles, Niesant manages a private early-stage investment portfolio focused on Pre-Seed and Seed companies across SportsTech, Media, Entertainment, and high-growth technology. He looks for mission-driven teams with scalable models and strong founder-market fit.
His contribution goes beyond capital. He brings strategic advisory, go-to-market mentorship, and institutional networking across APAC and international markets so founders can refine product-market fit, unlock partnerships, and scale with intent.
Cricket has always been more than a game for him. It is a way to build culture, back people, and pursue a vision that is bigger than a single season.
