But Universal Orlando never realized that lightning was about to strike twice with the expansion of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter—Diagon Alley at Universal Studios Florida. During this presentation, Alyson Lundell, APR, CPRC, the director of corporate communications for Universal Orlando Resort, will share insight into the challenges and opportunities they embraced when presented this incredible public relations opportunity for a second time.
