LOS ANGELES - iSportsWire -- Celebrating 26 years of community service, the "Uplifting Minds II" Entertainment Conference returns to Los Angeles Saturday November 8, 2025 (1-3pmPST) for a gathering of entertainment industry professionals' intent on educating the aspiring artists about the business of entertainment. The ULMII Entertainment Conference will be hosted by veteran sports commentator Vera Jones (ESPN, Fox Sports). The Los Angeles 'ULMII" conference, powered by Zoom, is grateful to have her back to keep attendees laughing and attentive. This makes three years that the veteran sports analyst hosted the Los Angeles event.
"You are in for a unique treat," Vera said to the attendees as she opened the ULMII Entertainment Conference in 2024.
You can expect the same in 2025. Aside from Vera, the ULMII conference offers a panel of 10 industry professionals that consist of artist managers, media publishers, podcast host, record label owners, FM radio station owner, break-through artist, Billboard chart-toppers, motivational speaker, artist development specialist, and Broadway performer. The ULMII Entertainment Conference also offers two stages.
