Our Brands
The P.M. Firm is a creative and strategic ecosystem built at the intersection of sport, culture, and community.
Through Dope People Meet®, we create curated experiences and platforms that bring creatives, entrepreneurs, and professionals together through meaningful connection.
Dope People Meet® League expands that vision into live athletics and culture driven competition, producing multi sport leagues and events that blend wellness, networking, and entertainment. We call it Where Creatives Play.
Through the Dope People Meet® League Foundation, we reinvest back into the community by using sport as a tool for youth development, mentorship, wellness, and access to opportunity for the next generation.
Together, our brands create impact driven experiences that move culture forward locally and globally.
Dope People Meet® is a community for entertainment brands, industry professionals, and creatives to host engaging events with curated audiences that reflect the marketing needs of today’s culture-driven firms. We serve as the liaison between creatives and brands, and between brands and the audiences they seek to reach. This is “Where Creatives Meet!”
Under the Dope People Meet® banner, we’ve produced 40+ events across five states and 10+ global webinars with engaged creatives tuning in from the UK, Canada, South Africa, North Africa, England, and the Caribbean. Our roster of collaborations includes iconic brands such as Nike, Google, Atlantic Records, Red Bull, Pepsi, Spinrilla, A3C, Since the 80’s, Rare Sound, K Camp, B. Simone, DJ Holiday, and more.
In 2025, we expanded our vision with the historic international launch of the Dope People Meet® League (DPM Sports) at FAME Week Africa in Cape Town, South Africa. The debut featured the Team USA ✖️ Team South Africa Pickleball Showcase, 20+ influencer partnerships, nightlife activations, and collaborations with Bayab Gin, The Foundry Pickleball Waterfront, and local small businesses. With over 205K+ views and a 1,500% reach increase across social media, the launch solidified DPM League as a global cultural movement.
Born from a desire to merge culture, community, and competition into one powerful experience, the DPM League reimagines intramural sports through a culturally immersive lens. It blends athleticism with music, branding, lifestyle, and community to close the gap between work, wellness, and meaningful engagement. The League provides a consistent, inclusive space where competition builds connection, and where play becomes a platform for collaboration, visibility, and impact.
More than just a game, DPM Sports is a movement — one that champions diversity, encourages friendly rivalry, activates local talent, and brings brands closer to the communities they serve. With momentum from our international debut, we’re building year-round programs in the U.S. and abroad, expanding to Ghana in December 2025 and returning to Cape Town and Johannesburg in partnership with some Dope People!
The Dope People Meet® League Foundation is the philanthropic arm of DPM® League, advancing our mission beyond the court through youth development, cultural exchange, and community empowerment. We use sport as a catalyst for confidence, creativity, and opportunity, offering programs that include youth clinics, mentorship, scholarships, and career readiness pathways across sports, entertainment, and entrepreneurship.
Every ticket sold fuels our mission, turning each game into lasting impact.
Our work centers on three pillars:
Community Impact and Access
Expanding opportunities in underserved communities through court refurbishments, free Play With a Purpose activations, and partnerships that strengthen health, wellness, and education.
Global Cultural Exchange
Connecting athletes and creatives across the African diaspora through international showcases, cultural immersion, and storytelling that blend competition with collaboration.
Mental Health and Wellness Advocacy
Championing mental wellness in sports and creative industries through awareness initiatives, resource partnerships, and programming that supports balance, identity, and well-being.
The DPM® League Foundation is where purpose meets play, inspiring the next generation to lead, create, and win beyond the court.

“Making the decision to attend UAPB was special to me because it carried the legacy of my grandmother from back when it was AM&N college. UAPB is the heartbeat of the south & it allowed me to express the uniqueness of my blackness in a safe space!
HBCU’s are important to carry the culture of our black communities & display the impact we have on the world! Black is Power! & HBCU’s allow you to showcase your power on our own stage!”
