AI Summary

This bill allows the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority (MCCA) to sell, license, or rent the naming or sponsorship rights of all buildings, facilities, parking garages, function rooms, and public areas it operates and owns, except for the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center. The bill requires the MCCA to issue a request for proposals within 180 days of enactment, and to preserve the name of the John B. Hynes Veterans Memorial Convention Center. The revenue generated from these naming and sponsorship rights will be split evenly between the Massachusetts Office of Travel and Tourism to promote statewide tourism and the Massachusetts Cultural Council to promote cultural programming.
