  This educational event will feature two tracks covering a wide range of challenges in sports and entertainment risk: 

  “Script to Screen” will walk through the risks associated with producing a film from concept to screen.

  “Managing Sports Risk At All Levels” will compare the most pressing risk management issues at the youth, college and professional levels.

  Although the sports and entertainment industries have different associated risks, they are increasingly similar in risk management strategies. This event will provide valuable continuing education and solutions in an intimate setting that will guarantee that you leave with new relationships with industry leaders.
