“It’s this high-adrenaline, high-speed sort of racing product right in front of you.” Russell Coutts This past weekend was the much anticipated New York Sail Grand Prix on Governors Island. SailGP is an international sailing competition in which teams, grouped by country, compete in large high-performance F50 foiling catamarans that race up to 60 miles per hour. The two day sold out race consisted of thousands of fans gathering to watch the 10 international teams compete for the winning trophy. The underdog venture team is proud to have played a pivotal role in the success of SailGP! From securing the host city and top venues to spearheading event production and marketing, our team was all in for this incredible journey. Who else was at the race this past weekend? We hope you had a blast! 😉 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/dBqBRKNk #SailGP #eventmarketing #sportsmarketing

Turns out that yesterday was bitter sweet. Kicked off the Major League Baseball (MLB) at Rickwood Field celebrations with a screening of the “Say Hey, Willie Mays” film directed by Nelson George in partnership with UNINTERRUPTED and HBO. Nelson George and Michael Mays talked about the documentary, shared stories about Willie, and gave a very personal perspective into their relationship with him…particularly his son Michael. As I left Birmingham this afternoon, the older gentleman driving me to the airport ironically shared stories of Willie and the “other ball players” that he looked up to in the area. Birmingham loved their son, Willie Mays. Today…we say goodbye. Goodbye to an icon…a legend…a treasure. The beauty is that the stage is already set in his hometown with MLB in the market celebrating and honoring the Negro Leagues. In talking to Michael yesterday, he made a comment about “coming home”…well I guess this is what he meant. I’m honored that our underdog venture team is here and part of such a surreal moment in history. I pray for the family and friends of this true hero! 🩷 #sayhey #williemays #sportsbiz #mlb
