Can Major Events Make a Positive Impact on Cities?

Description:

This panel will explore the positive and negative impacts of major events in cities. Olympic Games, music festivals, political conventions, product launches, and other major events all have the ability to impact residents. Through panelists representing unique points of view, this panel will explore the pre, during and post-event impacts on host communities and how, through strategic planning and a collaborative approach, these events may be capable of accelerating a city toward achieving its municipal goals.
