Business strategy takes center stage at NAB Show New York this fall, with a program that follows the money through consolidation, sports investment, creator-led companies, and AI, putting broadcast and streaming leaders in the same rooms as their investors.
NAB Show New York returns to the Javits Center October 21 and 22 with more than 150 speakers across over 60 education sessions covering broadcast, streaming, sports, the creator economy, and AI.
For radio, “The Future of Sports Betting: Growth, Media and Responsibility” pairs FanDuel President Christian Genetski with Craig Carton, who returned to Audacy Sports WFAN for afternoons in January and serves as a FanDuel responsible gaming ambassador.
OutKick founder Clay Travis, co-host of the nationally syndicated Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, will sit down with NAB President and CEO Curtis LeGeyt in “Game On: The Power of Sports on Broadcast.” Bruin Capital Partner Laurie Freeman and Isos Capital Management Director and Investor George Barrios lead “Investing in Sports Media Today,” while New York Islanders Co-Owner Jon Ledecky breaks down ownership models and the economics of live sports in “Inside the Live Sports Economy with Jon Ledecky.”
AI sessions focus on putting the technology to work. CNN Director of AI Innovation Ryan Struyk and The E.W. Scripps Company VP of Emerging Technology Operations Christina Hartman lead “Creating an Environment of FOMO: AI in the Newsroom.” Axios Chief Operating Officer Allison Murphy and former CBS News President and CEO Wendy McMahon take on “Can AI Help Solve the Local News Crisis?” and another session shares lessons from NAB’s Google AI training initiative.
Radio Ink‘s 34th Radio Wayne Awards open the show on October 21. Seats are available via the NAB Show New York website.
NAB EVP of Global Connections and Events Karen Chupka said, “NAB Show New York reflects a media industry where technology and business strategy can no longer be separated. Whether you’re building a creator-led company, rethinking a streaming product, investing in sports or modernizing a newsroom, the decisions being made today are about both how content gets made and how media businesses grow.”
