LUNCH WITH JERRY JONES, JR.
Please join us for a wide-ranging discussion with Jerry Jones Jr., including plenty of time for Q&A, about all things Cowboys: their business empire, brand, real estate juggernaut, and of course sports.
For example:
What is going on with the explosive growth of The Star in Frisco?
How did The Cowboys become ranked in 2022 as the most valuable brand in the NFL, and by many estimates, “America’s Team”?
How is the brand now being expanded internationally?
What’s being planned for the upcoming NFL season?
Our conversation will be moderated by Kristi Scales, veteran and award-winning sideline reporter for the Dallas Cowboys Radio Network.
Come with questions prepared and a hearty appetite for the lunch buffet at the Arts District Mansion. We invite all to arrive at 11:30 to grab food and get seated. The program will start at noon and last until 1:00 PM
Space is limited, so early registration is only available for Harvard Club members and one guest each. Non-members are welcome to purchase any remaining tickets 2 weeks prior to the event.
