Widely recognized as the country's premier sports attorney—and inspiration for the movie "Jerry Maguire"—Leigh Steinberg is a leader in both the athletic and environmental arenas. He will share his vision for sustainability and how our business can benefit from those initiatives.
Having represented more than 150 professional athletes in football, baseball, basketball, volleyball, golf, boxing and the Olympics, Steinberg's passion for sports is only rivaled by his passion for humanitarian and environmental causes. His latest focus is on combating the scourge of global warming, giving a keynote speech at the United Nations 2006 Global Forum for Sport & Environment held in Lausanne, Switzerland. Among his many efforts, this year's 22nd Annual Leigh Steinberg Super Bowl Party, always a high-profile bash, was entirely environmentally sustainable.
The Minneapolis Connection
Professional sports, enjoyed by more than 1 million metro-area visitors every year, are going green. As the Minneapolis area undergoes a sports facility boom, many green projects are being considered or are underway, from the new Twins and Gophers stadiums to Target Center. Leigh Steinberg will highlight sustainability initiatives in the sports and building industries and what we can do locally to grow those initiatives.
