You can now watch or listen to a replay of our Feb. 25 Speaker Series on the economic impact of the nine FIFA World Cup matches that will be played in North Texas this summer. The World Cup is expected to add more than $2 billion to our region’s economy, with more than 100,000 daily visitors impacting lodging, retail, mobility, and workplace and site operations. Downtown Dallas will also host the tournament’s International Broadcast Center.
Our panel was moderated by Eric Prisbell, senior sports business reporter with The Dallas Morning News, and featured Dan Hunt (president, FC Dallas) and Monica Paul (executive director, Dallas Sports Commission).
