Iagreed to work for Rise Up Agency because I was impressed by the professionalism and commitment of its founder to offer tailored support to every athlete. Beyond on-field performance, Rise Up places the well-being of athletes at the core of its priorities. Siraba Dembélé also shows a strong commitment to promoting and valuing women’s sports, representing many top-level female athletes.

Working with Siraba, who knows the realities of high-level sports, allows me to contribute to the success of her athletes by providing my legal expertise.
