David Preschlack
CEO
Diamond Sports Group
HOMETOWN: Chicago
FAVORITE SPORTS TEAM: Any and all Chicago teams
I WANT 30 SECONDS IN AN ELEVATOR WITH: The person or thing
that knows when multichannel subscribers are going to level off.
Preschlack knows a thing or two about pressure
as he leads Diamond Sports through
its Chapter 11 restructuring and into a new
business model. The former NBCU and Disney/
ESPN exec knew what he was jumping into
when he took the job in December and you can
bet he has a plan. While the future of the Bally
Sports nets is murky, we're anxious to see what
this seasoned exec brings to the table.
IDEA MAN
Sam Schwartz
Chief Business Development Officer
Comcast Cable
60
Schwartz leads the company's strategic development
group, engaging directly with entrepreneurs
through Comcast Ventures and programs
like Startup Engagement, which includes
Comcast NBCU LIFT Labs and SportsTech,
direct investments in startups, and founder
events in the communities the company serves.
Since the first class in 2018, 54 companies
have completed the Comcast NBCUniversal
LIFT Labs Accelerator and raised more than
$125 million. And more than 78% have secured
proofs of concepts, pilots or commercial deals
with Comcast, NBCU and Sky. ●
Q&A
INDUSTRY TOP PRIORITY FOR 2023: Once and for all figure
out how to communicate the value of the multichannel bundle.
MY BEST IDEAS COME WHEN... I'm facing complex challenges
that require out-of-the-box thinking, like working for a company
that is restructuring its balance sheet in bankruptcy court.
FAVORITE PLACE YOU'VE EVER VISITED? St. Barths. ●
LEGAL EASE
Savalle Sims
EVP & General Counsel
Warner Bros. Discovery
60
The successful formation of Warner
Bros. Discovery hinged on a
complex web of legal matters-all
helmed by Sims, who provides
strategy and counsel to David
Zaslav and other company leaders.
Decisive and collaborative, she led
the company's global legal team to
achieve critical milestones such as
securing regulatory approvals and
developing an integration process
to bring the two companies together.
Beyond the mega-merger, Sims
was integral in the acquisition of BT Sports and she's helping
to guide the company's evolving streaming strategy.
Q&A
WHERE DO YOU WORK MOST FREQUENTLY-HOME,
OFFICE, ROAD? Office and road
MY BEST IDEAS COME WHEN... I am sleeping or
commuting.
MY BIGGEST IRRATIONAL PHOBIA: Dying in a shark
attack
