For decades, many of the world’s most popular stadiums and sports venues have had roots tied back to Kansas City.

Attendees will have the opportunity to submit questions and hear our panelists discuss issues pertaining to the current state of the industry and potential projects that could reshape Kansas City and the region.  You won't want to miss this opportunity to learn how Kansas City is leading the way in sports architecture!
