Quarterly Expo 2031 Stakeholder Mix & Mingle Connect

Thanks to all who joined us for our first Expo Connect of 2025. It has been a busy and exciting year thus far and we were pleased to share that we are tacking to our Expo 2031 Development timeline with our most recent Extraordinary Virtual Vote stage with the AIPH Governing body at their 2025 Spring Meeting.

Three presenters provided highlights sharing insights on both progress and what is next here in Q1 2025 and into Q2 2025.
First up, John Hyduke, Owner/ CEO, Modern Climate, one of our initial Founding Partners welcomed as our host and shared about Modern Climate's leadership and collaboration with the Expo 2031 Team. John's remarks illustrate the innovative and expo aligned model that we have established to imagine, design and build Expo 2031 Minnesota, USA.

Wendy Meadley, CEO, Expo 2031, provided a brief recap of our AIPH Spring Meeting Presentation and the securing of the Virtual Vote keeping our development timeline in tact. She additionally introduced two new aspects of the Expo 2031 Strategy Blueprint, our Green Leisure Consumer Profiles and our Greater Metro Area Gateways. These are all important stakeholders and tourism leaders in Minnesota and will likely play significant collaborative roles in the development of Expo 2031.
