The future of sports, a GeekWire virtual event with leaders from Seattle Sounders, UW and WSU

How can professional and collegiate sports return safely? Which technologies and approaches will ensure a seamless transition back to the playing field, and ultimately to the stands?

That was our topic on this special GeekWire Virtual Roundtable, with Pat Chun, Washington State University director of athletics; Jennifer Cohen, University of Washington director of athletics; and Adrian Hanauer, majority owner of Seattle Sounders FC.

Thanks to sponsors Pure Storage and Davis Wright Tremaine for helping to make this session available to the GeekWire community.
