Disney World’s President Joins Florida Governor’s Task Force to Reopen the State
As states begin to turn their attention towards the slow reopening phase of the current health crisis, task forces are forming to bring together various experts and leaders across industries and local governments. We learned last week that The Walt Disney Company’s Executive Chairman Bob Iger has joined the business recovery task forces for the state of California.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis met today with various state leaders to address how businesses in the state may strategize the reopening process, when it is time to do so. This meeting revealed the various members of Florida’s business recovery committee, including representation from The Walt Disney Company.
Josh D’Amaro, the President of Walt Disney World, has joined what is known as the “Re-Open Florida Task Force Executive Committee.” D’Amaro is joined by John Sprouls, the CEO of Universal Orlando Resort and executive vice president of Universal Parks & Resorts.

Rounding out the committee are the following members:
- Patrick Sunderlin, vice president, global supply chain, Lockheed Martin Corp.

- Todd Jones, CEO, Publix Super Markets
- Florida Lt. Gov. Jeanette Nuñez
