Since 2008, the WNBA's Seattle Storm has been owned by three local businesswomen: Lisa Brummel, Ginny Gilder, and Dawn Trudeau.
Their first decade owning the Storm was about learning how to run the business, Brummel told Insider.
The ownership group closed in February 2023 a $21 million raise, Brummel said, which will go toward the new $64 million facility and working capital.
The Seattle Storm currently practice in the basement gym of Seattle Pacific University, where Brummel said they get four hours of access per day.
"What we've actually done is curated a list of people who really care about the team," Brummel said.
