SUMMARY:2025 State of Downtown
DESCRIPTION:The 2025 State of Downtown will spotlight catalytic development projects shaping the next era of growth and transformation in downtown KC.\n\n\nABOUT THE EVENT\nBuilding on the expanded vision introduced in 2024\, this year’s event will continue to explore how downtown is evolving into a resilient\, mixed-use\, and highly livable district. Central to our theme is the concept of the ripple effect. As revitalization of the center continues\, it is like dropping a pebble in a pond\, creating a ripple. Investing in the center has an economic ripple effect on the neighborhoods surrounding the central business district. \nThis year’s program will highlight three major development initiatives – the 18th & Vine District\, Roy Blunt Luminary Park & Barney Allis Plaza’s redesigned public space\, and the UMKC Health Sciences District. We will explore how these projects are catalysts for a ripple effect of economic growth\, neighborhood revitalization\, and civic pride across our urban core. \n \nAGENDA\n4:00 PM – 4:30 PMRegistration & Arrivals \n \n4:30 PM – 5:30 PMProgram \nWelcomeJason Parson\, President & CEO\, Parson Associates\, 2025-26 Chair\, Downtown Council \nRemarks & UpdateMario Vasquez\, City Manager\, City of Kansas City\, MO \nFeatured SpeakerLynn Carlton\, National Practice Leader for Planning\, Urban Design & Landscape Architecture\, Burns & McDonnell \nPanel Discussion \n\nModerator: Pat Contreras\, Vice President\, Business Development\, McCownGordon Construction\, Vice Chair\, Downtown Council & 2025 State of Downtown Planning Chair\nDr. Mauli Agrawal\, Chancellor\, University of Missouri\, Kansas City\nTara Green\, Principal\, Public Realm Strategies\, OJB Landscape Architecture\n\n\nBob Kendrick\, President\, Negro Leagues Baseball Museum\nPeter Sloan\, Senior Principal Designer\, HOK\n\nClosing RemarksMayor Quinton Lucas\, City of Kansas City\, MO \n5:30 PM – 6:30 PMReception \n \nSponsorship Opportunities\nPresenting Sponsor – $7\,500 (limit 1)\n\n10 tickets to the event\nCompany logo prominently displayed on event materials and at the event\nRecognition with logo and link as a corporate sponsor on the event website\nExclusive company feature in (1) dedicated email to DTC Membership\nAcknowledgment from the stage during the event program and in social media surrounding the event\nOpportunity to distribute collateral and/or branded swag at the event (item to be mutually agreed upon by the sponsor and Downtown Council\, Inc.)\n\nPlatinum Sponsor – $5\,000\n\n8 tickets to the event\nCompany logo displayed on event materials and at the event\nRecognition with logo and link as a corporate sponsor on the event website\nDedicated signage for specific event element sponsor\nAcknowledgement in social media and PR efforts surrounding the event\n\nGold Sponsor – $3\,000\n\n5 tickets to the event\nCompany logo displayed on event materials and at the event\nRecognition with logo and link as a corporate sponsor on the event website\n\nSilver Sponsor – $1\,500\n\n2 tickets to the event\nCompany logo displayed on event materials and at the event\nName recognition and link as a corporate sponsor on the event website\n\n \nTo secure your sponsorship\, please complete the online sponsorship form.
