ABOUT CONNECT

MLC Connect is the premier gathering of creative and innovative minds from the sports industry. The objective is to “connect” professionals across creative and tech-driven industries through transformative annual gatherings.

We redefine what’s possible in sports through creativity and technology. Attendees collaborate to learn, teach, and share new methods, strategies, software, and philosophies that inspire, challenge, and empower them to push the industry forward. Our community spans creatives, technologists, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders—each dedicated to pushing the boundaries of creativity to the next level.

Together, we build a space where sports creatives and innovators can grow their brands, enhance marketing, advertising, and entertainment efforts, and cultivate solutions that directly impact their organizations’ goals.

Welcome to MLC Connect: a place to gather, learn, and inspire.
