Attending the Global Symposium on Racing was one of the most meaningful and rewarding academic and professional experiences of my time in the University of Arizona’s Race Track Industry Program (RTIP). The Symposium brought together leading experts, regulators, industry professionals, and students from across the horse racing industry, providing a unique opportunity to connect classroom learning with real-world application.
