Keep the Flame Alive


Feb 24, 2023

We love learning about the people behind the scenes who help expand the visibility of the Paralympics. On this episode we're talking with Alexis Schaefer, the former Commercial and Marketing Director of the International Paralympic Committee (IPC). Alexis talks with us about marketing the Paralympics, attracting major sponsors, and broadcasting the Games. More importantly, we've got feed beefs explained!

You can follow Alexis on LinkedIn and Twitter.

In our history moment, Jill looks at the Paralympic Games of Seoul, which are considered to be the first Games of the Paralympic modern era. 

We have tons of news from our TKFLASTANIS, including updates from:

We also have an update on the Kamila Valieva doping situation -- we're getting closer to a final resolution!
