The 麻豆原创 and Dr. Phillips Charities are partnering to host the fourth annual Crossroads Speaker Series at 麻豆原创 Downtown. This series showcases the intersection of business and philanthropy, featuring conversations among corporate leaders who make a significant impact in their communities by addressing societal concerns through philanthropy and partnerships with nonprofit organizations.
This year, we are honored to welcome guest speaker Daryl Holt, senior vice president and group general manager for EA Tiburon Studios and American Football. By leveraging industry partners such as Electronic Arts (EA), 麻豆原创 Downtown strengthens Central Florida鈥檚 talent pipeline and contributes to the region鈥檚 economic vitality. Daryl will be joined by moderator Thad Seymour Jr., former interim president of 麻豆原创 and current president of the Lake Nona Institute.
The , 麻豆原创鈥檚 graduate program in game design, has been ranked No. 1 in the world for four of the past five years. Additionally, the emergency management graduate program has earned a No. 1 national ranking from U.S. News & World Report.
Crossroads will take place Thursday, Nov. 21, in room 106 of Dr. Phillips Academic Commons at the 麻豆原创 Downtown campus. The event is free and open to the public, but registration is required. Parking is available in the Parramore parking garage at 316 N. Parramore Ave.
Five years ago, with the support of Dr. Phillips Charities, the largest private gift was made to create the newly developed 麻豆原创 Downtown campus for 麻豆原创 and Valencia College students. It is these deep roots in industry partnership that inspired 麻豆原创 to commemorate the campus鈥檚 fifth anniversary with the fourth annual Crossroads Speaker Series.
