I am in my second year as the Sports & Entertainment Sales Manager for VISIT Milwaukee. Prior to me, Sports was not even considered a Major Market. The one thing that VISIT Milwaukee was aware of, was the importance of NASC and attending the Sports Event Symposium. 2012 was my first year attending and my colleagues were right, NASC Sports Event Symposium is by far the best industry event to attend for education. It truly gave me an opportunity to work with my peers and understand how I can help my city grow the Sports market. If you are looking to develop the Sports market, learn how to overcome challenges and share ideas with other cities, the best place to be is the 2013 NASC Sports Event Symposium.
