Motivate, Educate & Inspire

Our team has spoken at dozens of events, conferences, and film festivals around of the world.

Here are some success stories from recent speaking events:

    • After a wheelchair basketball workshop and screening at the No Barriers Summit, a recently injured young man decided to join a wheelchair basketball team and continue to pursue his educational goals, despite having recently lost his motivation.
    • Hosted by Napa Valley Film Festival, three athletes from the film and two filmmakers spoke to 1200 middle school students. The kids rushed the stage to receive autographs from the speakers after the presentation.
    • A wheelchair basketball team in Rockford, IL brought two athletes and two filmmakers out to speak to local city officials, school board members, and decision makers about the importance of adapted sport.  Directly after the event, the team recruited new players from these connections.
    • An Insurance Company brought an athlete and a filmmaker in for their annual awards dinner to inspire and ignite their sales force.
