What this episode covers

My guest on episode 311 of #thePOZcast is someone whom I have known for almost 20 years, a former colleague and someone who I deeply respect and admire, Andrew Schwartz. Andrew is Co-President of the New York Region at The Howard Hughes Corporation, where he leads the continued revitalization of Lower Manhattan’s Seaport neighborhood with a focus on strategic partnerships and programming. Andrew has been with HHC at the Seaport since 2015, previously serving as Executive Vice President of Strategic Partnerships. He spearheaded the company’s partnership platforms—developing a wide array of programming and activations, including The Rooftop at Pier 17’s Summer Concert Series—and has managed the Seaport’s award-winning in-house creative design studio and its digital and marketing teams. Prior to joining HHC, Andrew served as Senior Vice President of Global Partnerships at Brooklyn Sports and Entertainment, where he was responsible for overseeing all partnership sales for the NBA’s Brooklyn Nets and the NHL’s New York Islanders at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
