The Signal - Welcome to The Playbook!

Hello there,

Thanks for subscribing to The Playbook. It’s great to see you here!

The Playbook is a weekly newsletter that goes beyond the headlines in the business of sports and gaming—with a focus on India but also in touch with what’s happening in the rest of the world. The newsletter will land in your inbox every Friday at 4 pm IST. I’m Jaideep btw. I’ve been writing on the absorbing intersection of sports and business since 2017, and on sports in general since 2011. I’ve written for publications such as The Ken (where I authored a weekly sports-business newsletter called Moneyball), Forbes India, Quartz India, Mint Lounge, and Scroll.in.

I’m excited to have you along for this journey. Please write to me at hello@thesignal.co or jaideep@thesignal.co with any feedback, suggestions, ideas, and tips. I hope you enjoy reading The Playbook. And if you do, please share it with your friends, family, coworkers, classmates, and whoever you think might like it.

The Playbook is brought to you by Frontpage Media Technologies Pvt Ltd, a new-age startup helmed by veteran journalists and a public policy professional, and backed by some of the leaders in the startup industry. Our flagship product is The Signal, a curated daily newsletter on global business and tech. We also have an originally-reported weekend long read, The Intersection.
