About Cody Smoot
I’m a Midwesterner at heart, and I bring that mindset to everything I do in sports partnerships. Show up, do the work, build trust, and deliver real value.My career has taken me through minor league sports, professional sports, and college athletics. Each stop taught me something different. Minor league sports humbled me. You learn quickly how to sell, activate, and service with limited resources while still making partners feel like priorities. Pro sports introduced me to big corporate dollars, national brands, and real ROI conversations where results matter and expectations are high. College athletics added another layer entirely. Passionate fan bases, deep traditions, and the unpredictable, fast-moving world of NIL have reshaped how partnerships are built and valued.Today, I serve as Director of Corporate Partnerships for the Pinnacle Bank Championship and Support Nebraska. My focus is simple: move partnerships beyond logos and signage and turn them into meaningful business relationships. At the Pinnacle Bank Championship, that means aligning brands with experiences and community touchpoints that make sense for the tournament, the fans, and the market. With Support Nebraska, it means using partnerships as a way to drive real community impact, not just visibility.
