運動經紀人可謂為運動生產與消費間之樞紐，其對運動市場的活絡、運動商業價值的發展，均有著不可低估之效用。運動經紀人實為運動產業蓬勃發展之國家所需面臨的重要課題之一，我國雖尚未明確制定運動經紀人之相關法規，然而運動經紀人此一重要角色已隨我國運動產業發展應運而生。
本研究探討運動經紀人相關文獻及各國運動經紀人現況，並以修正式德爾菲研究法針對我國相關領域之產官學專家進行調查，在彙整理論、實際與專家意見後，獲得通盤與一致性的結果。
本研究發現，我國產官學專家對運動經紀人角色功能之認定，與相關文獻及各國運動經紀人現況相互印證。「諮詢」、「財務管理及規劃」、「行銷」、「爭端解決」、「生涯規劃」方面的角色功能，被共同認定為運動經紀人的角色功能群組，顯示我國對運動經紀人角色功能的概念，已與全球運動產業發展之趨勢相互符合。
希望透過本研究，我國運動產業界能更清楚運動經紀人的角色功能，讓運動經紀人在運動產業界中發揮最大的效用，替運動員和運動產業扮演最稱職的仲介角色，也期待這樣的研究能對我國未來規劃運動經紀人制度有所啟發。
