49ers Foundation Teams with Beyond Sport and Chevron to Showcase Sports and Youth Education

The 49ers Foundation, Beyond Sport and Chevron have teamed up in a unique partnership to expand the role of sports in increasing student’s interest in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).

The partnership will support Beyond Innovation, a one-day event on May 9th at Levi’s® Stadium, bringing together influencers, decision-makers and change makers from around the world to explore how sports can be leveraged as a tool to improve, empower and create new approaches to STEM education.

As the leading global force for sustainable social change through sport, Beyond Sport explored the intersection of sport, tech and cause at the global Beyond Sport Summit & Awards in October of 2016, where 800 global innovators and leaders were drawn together to explore how different approaches to innovation can combine with sport to help create cutting-edge solutions to tackle some of the most pressing social issues affecting the world today.
