2026 Keynote
Wear Your Crown
“Your brain will believe whatever you tell it—so tell it crazy things.”
— Noelle LeVeaux, CMO, FIFA World Cup 26 Dallas

Chief Marketing Officer
FIFA World Cup 26 Dallas
Think back to the little girl you used to be. She didn't doubt her worth—she played princess because she inherently knew, “No, I'm royalty. This is how I should be treated.” Somewhere along the line, the world tells us to compromise, but the little girl in you always believed in you—and she still does.
Join Chief Marketing Officer of the FIFA World Cup 26 Dallas Noelle LeVeaux to block out the noise, change the voices in your head, and remember exactly who you are. It's time to step back into your power and wear your crown.
