Meridian presents a bold new forum exploring the powerful intersection of sports, diplomacy, and global investment.
The inaugural Meridian Sports Diplomacy Forum will convene industry leaders, investors, policymakers, and cultural influencers to explore the powerful role of sports as a catalyst for economic growth, community development, and global engagement.
Through high-impact discussions and curated networking, participants will examine how strategic investment and cross-sector collaboration in sports can unlock new markets, drive innovation, and strengthen a nation’s global brand.
Why Now? Why Sports?
The Decade of American Sports Diplomacy
The U.S. will host the FIFA World Cup, LA28 Olympics, Salt Lake City Winter Olympics 2034, and more. These are more than sporting events. They’re global stages for American leadership, economic diplomacy, and cultural exchange.
Sports are one of the most powerful tools to reach people across borders, ideologies, and generations. They open markets, shape culture, build trust, and drive influence at unmatched speed and scale.
