Multi-use arena and expo complex serving three states
Allen County War Memorial Coliseum operates an 80-acre facility anchored by sports (ECHL hockey, college basketball), concerts, expos, and corporate events. The tech stack is standard enterprise Microsoft + Cisco infrastructure, with minimal hiring velocity and a legal-heavy department mix that suggests significant regulatory or governance overhead — unusual for a venue operator and worth probing during outreach.
