Hear more on where things are heading from our executive line up of Paramount/Pluto TV (Eduardo Arias), FOX Deportes (Angelina Losada), YouTube (Victor Machado) and Octagon (William Mao).

Closing the day, will be the first of two sessions for the ever popular Pitch Perfect which continues to gain traction in popularity, providing a fantastic showcase for emerging companies new to SPORTEL who have a creative or innovative solution, to present in this quick-fire session.
