CELEBRATING LEADING VISIONARIES IN THE TV INDUSTRY

We will be announcing our 40 Under 40 NYC over the next coming weeks. 

The awards program is supported by Broadcasting + Cable and Multichannel News and showcases the pioneering people that are pushing the boundaries of innovation in the industry. 

From OTT, cross-platform and new metrics, to big data, digital disruption and economic challenges - the development and delivery of content is transforming like never before. Who’s at the forefront of this revolution in the industry? A special group of creative, imaginative, tech-savvy, visionaries with new perspectives and game-changing ideas.

These are the people who help create, market and sell what viewers are watching on screens big and small. These are the people who hear “it hasn’t been done before” and can’t resist the challenge.
