About GBS
Our Story
Go Beyond Sports drives to create an impact in the world of sports. The inspiration to lead this comes from Sonali's passion for sports and desire to contribute to it. A small moment as a team owner in a local league turned into a bigger idea way back in 2017 and GBS was launched in 2019, with its impactful interviews hosted by Sonali and in conversation with players from all kinds of sports and level of achievements. The story continued as GBS was incubated as a promising start-up at the AIC centre NMIMS, Mumbai backed by the Niti Ayog until the pandemic hit in 2020. GBS has since continued to keep its online presence through digital content, online interviews, highlighting various sports and its players, and creating a platform to include everything connected to sports. Our story at GBS continues...
