We had the good fortune of connecting with Trayvon Jefferson Bey and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Trayvon, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
My thought process behind starting my own sports agency business was a decision I’ve made a year ago. Although , I’m still a player in the professional basketball industry , I’ve decided to start my own management group because I have a passion on helping players get to the next level. I have been managing my own career since the start as well.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
If I had a friend or family come visit me here in Dubai , I would take them to the safari desert. It’s a very unique place to see , you get to experience riding dirt bikes, great food and riding on Camels in the desert. Also , for food I would take them to the palm and Atlantis , those are my favorites places to go. The palm has a great beach view and Atlantis has great food as well.
