Current Leadership
Governor & Managing Partner
Apollo Global Management co-founder Josh Harris led a group that purchased the 76ers in 2011 for $280 million during the height of 'The Process' rebuild. Harris has been patient through years of intentional losing and the controversial Sam Hinkie era, and has invested in building a contender around Joel Embiid. He also owns the NHL's New Jersey Devils and NFL's Washington Commanders, and has been actively pursuing plans for a new arena in Center City Philadelphia.
Co-Managing Partner
Blackstone Group executive David Blitzer co-purchased the 76ers alongside Josh Harris and has been a key figure in the franchise's business operations. Blitzer has an extensive international sports portfolio that includes stakes in soccer clubs around the world, and he has helped bring a global business perspective to the 76ers organization.

Historical Figures
Owner
Comcast Spectacor, led by Ed Snider, owned the 76ers as part of a portfolio that included the Philadelphia Flyers and the Wells Fargo Center. The corporate ownership era saw Allen Iverson lead the team to the 2001 NBA Finals, but the franchise generally underperformed. The company sold the 76ers to the Harris-Blitzer group in 2011.
Owner
Nutrisystem founder Harold Katz purchased the 76ers in 1981 and immediately reaped the benefits, winning the 1983 NBA championship with Julius Erving, Moses Malone, and Andrew Toney. However, the franchise declined through the late 1980s and early 1990s, and Katz's contentious relationship with Charles Barkley led to the star's trade to Phoenix.
