Sideline Chat: How San Jose Delivers Seamless Sports Events

Event organizers know San Jose, California, is home to world-class venues such as SAP Center at San Jose and Sharks Ice at San Jose (the largest ice center west of the Mississippi River) — not to mention Paypal Park and CEFCU Stadium. But in this Sideline Chat filmed during the TEAMS Conference & Expo, Matthew Martinucci, vice president of sales and destination services of Visit San Jose, and John Poch, executive director of San Jose Sports Authority, discuss some new developments that should be on the radars of those sourcing locations for their sports events.

In this video, they discuss how their organizations and others are working together before, during and after a competition to deliver a seamless, impactful experience for events-rights holders (which will only be enhanced by the new one-stop visitor center opening next year).
