Valued at over $1 billion in 2019, the world of competitive, organized video gaming has taken the traditional sports realm by storm, and the Dallas Mavericks have sought to weather this tidal wave of non-traditional play. Located in the heart of Deep Ellum, a neighborhood just east of downtown Dallas, is the all-new, state-of-the-art Dallas Mavericks Gaming Hub. This 13,000 square foot pavilion houses the members of the Mavs Gaming team, one of just 17 teams in the NBA 2K League. Prepare yourself for an engaging, interactive tour and discussion as we learn about the virtual world of esports! Lunch will be served.
Co-founded by ESPN's Maria Taylor and Corinne Milien in 2014, the Winning Edge Leadership Academy is committed to changing the game through experiential leadership development, mentorship and job placement opportunities. Their Dinners of Influence follow in the tradition of President Thomas Jefferson who gathered leaders with diverse opinions to share in their common humanity over dinner in the early 1800s. Talk about a blast from the past! Fast forward to 2019 as we seek to recreate this historical gathering among industry veterans and young professionals to discuss career development with the aim of providing assists to the next generation of leaders in sports business. The key to successful leadership rests not in authority, but rather in the power of influence! Join us at The Hero and find your champion!
