Connect Item and Subitem in different boards

In board A, I have a list of speakers (name, title, company, head shot etc…) . In board B, I have a list of events (London, Paris, Rome etc …). Under each event, I have speakers as sub items, these are the same individuals as those on board A.

What I want to do is maintain a database of speakers that will serve as the single source of truth while also connecting it to the sub-items beneath each event in board B.

I am using Super Forms in board A to enable speakers to update their own information as necessary.

Speakers will update information such as presentation titles or headshots. This item needs to be linked from board A as the database to board B the events, where a connection is established between the sub-item in B and the item in A as they are the same person.

Does this make sense? Is anyone doing anything similar?
