City Building Playbook: Sports and Development

What impacts do professional sports teams and stadiums have on our city landscapes and culture? Hear from a team of diverse city builders on how sports can be leveraged as a development strategy; and hear what leadership lessons translate from sports field to greenfield. From the Ice District to the Commonwealth Stadium, sports can play an active role in community building, placemaking and branding, and help to leverage private-sector investment and attract people. What’s Edmonton’s next play?

Moderated by Susan Keating (Melcor Developments), this panel will convene a diverse range of industry leaders.
