Gord Lang

Born in Northern Ontario, Canada, Gord moved to Atlanta in the early 1990s and later settled in Connecticut, his wife’s home state.

 

A senior business development and experiential marketing executive with over 30 years of experience, Gord specializes in creating powerful live experiences that bring people together. Throughout his career, he has designed large-scale programs for global brands, major sports properties, and entertainment organizations. This work has shown him the transformative power of shared experiences to build community, spark meaningful conversations, and create lasting emotional connections.

 

Gord’s deep belief in the importance of human connection and showing up for one another aligns closely with the Mia Fontana Foundation’s mission. He carries fond memories of Mia, who was always an enthusiastic co-creator of the bedtime stories he told during the families’ annual trips together. Her creativity, warmth, and storytelling spirit left a lasting impression on everyone lucky enough to know her.

 

Gord is honored to serve on the Board and help advance the Foundation’s work to support the emotional resilience and mental health of children, teens, and young adults.
