About Tyler Othen

Strategic consultant with background as a Project Manager, Financial Analyst and Market Researcher for over 100 event facility and tourism projects internationally, including feasibility and planning studies for tourism destinations, convention centers, arenas, amateur sports facilities, esports arenas, and performing arts centers. Working in an industry that’s very much a continually moving target, I work with our clients to plan for the future of tourism and events, with a focus on building solutions for the consumers of both today and tomorrow. Key accomplishments in my career thus far include-Initiated and lead CSL’s esports practice, which has resulted in 11 feasibility studies and strategic plans for private and public sector clients-Led or assisted in the delivery of facility development recommendations and economic forecasts for billions of $ in sports, convention and visitor facility investment decisions since 2014-Led comprehensive Destination Development strategies for eight municipalities, resulting in completion or planning for hundreds of millions of dollars of construction and infrastructure projects-Participated in five separate esports and travel industry panels at various tradeshows, including the E3 Expo. I have reached these accomplishments largely due to the variety of skills I’ve acquired and developed throughout my career thus far. These range from soft skills such as focus group facilitation, presentation and communication skills, one-on-one interviewing, project planning, high-level urban planning, and sales and marketing, to technical skills such as financial modeling, presentation content creation, intensive writing, survey creation and analysis, and economic impact forecasting. Going forward, I intend to further develop my business management and administration skills, entrepreneurial vision, and team management abilities to help guide decisionmakers toward future-focused product developments that cater to the consumer behavior of tomorrow.
