IAAPA has announced that the Expo’s Legends 2022 panel will feature a number of people involved in the creation of Walt Disney World’s Epcot theme park.
As the park gets ready to celebrate its 40th anniversary, a number of imagineers behind the project will be part of the panel.
Hoest by Bob Rogers, founder and chairman of BRC Imagination Arts, the panel will include Bob Weis, global ambassador at Walt Disney Imagineering, Jodi McLaughlin, executive portfolio producer at Walt Disney Imagineering, Kartika Rodriguez, vice president at Epcot and Rick Rothschild, founder and chief creative officer of Far Out! Creative Direction.
The panel will look at the lessons that arose from the creation of Epcot and its continuing evolution.
Michael Shelton, vice president and executive director of IAAPA North America, said: “We could not be happier with the speaker line-up we have for this year’s Legends panel.
“This popular session lets IAAPA shine a spotlight on just some of the outstanding industry leaders who have truly carved the path to where we are today. Getting to focus on Epcot as it turns 40 should offer greater insight into the future of the park and provide inspiration to everyone in attendance.”
