Join ILEA-MSP for a conversation with women leaders shaping the sports and events landscape in the Twin Cities. Our panelists will share how they design experiences that bring people together; from grassroots initiatives to large-scale sporting events that drive energy, connection, and economic impact in our cities. We’ll explore how intentional experience design, community engagement, and creative event strategy transform sporting moments into meaningful shared experiences.

Whether you work in events, hospitality, marketing, or community engagement, you’ll leave with fresh insights into how sports can serve as a powerful platform for connection and community.

Thank you to our program sponsors!
