As we prepare for the LA28 Olympics, it’s essential to consider how we can create lasting benefits for all communities across Los Angeles—not just those directly hosting events. Join us on September 12th for a special panel discussion where experts will explore strategies to ensure that short-term rentals, housing, and social infrastructure generate positive impacts throughout the region.

We are pleased to announce our confirmed speakers for this event:

  • Alissa Walker (Moderator) - Writer and Editor at Torched.

  • Eduardo Mendoza - Planner and Policy Director at Livable Communities Initiative.

  • Matt Walker - Executive Vice President at Lowe Enterprises, Hospitality and Resort Development.

  • Chris Torres - City Planning Commissioner for South LA and Founding Principal, Agency Artifact Landscape Architecture and Urban Design.

  • Ken Bernstein - Principal City Planner for LA City Planning's Office of Historic Resources and the department's Urban Design Studio.
