2009 Motorsports Marketing Forum

Moves to Las Vegas

December 1-2

 

 

For the first time in its ten-year history, the Motorsports Marketing Forum (MMF) will be headed west!  MMF, which is hosted by SportsBusiness Journal and SportsBusiness Daily, will be held in Las Vegas, Nevada on December 1 & 2 at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino.

 

For the past decade, MMF has been considered the industry’s most comprehensive motorsports forum. It is the one event where you can hear perspectives from top corporate brands, teams and leagues, as they discuss and analyze their motorsports marketing plans moving into next year's season. The Forum draws hundreds of the industry’s top executives from sponsors, teams, sanctioning bodies, track owners and agencies. 

 

This year’s program will feature our signature State of Motorsports panel along with one-on-one interviews with industry leaders.  You’ll also hear from the brand-side marketers that are making the greatest impact in motorsports.  The complete agenda will be posted in the months ahead.
