Martha J. Sheridan, President & CEO of Meet Boston, talks about the evolving role of sports and entertainment in hospitality. With a track record of securing high-profile events and elevating Boston’s presence on the global stage, Sheridan has redefined what it means to create experiences that both inspire and unite. “Boston’s sports and entertainment scene is a vital vertical within the travel sector, helping to drive the regional economy while shining a light on Greater Boston as a world-class destination,” Sheridan said. “These major events bring residents and visitors together in a unifying spirit that benefits everyone.”

In recognition of her transformative impact, Sheridan received the 2025 ICON Award from Boston University’s School of Hospitality Administration at the annual Hospitality Leadership Summit. The award honors “Experience Innovators” who challenge convention and advance the hospitality field. This year’s Summit theme—centered on sports and entertainment—underscores Sheridan’s influence, as she continues to shape the fan journey and reimagine Boston as a vibrant, inclusive destination for all.
