Before the 2026 FIFA World Cup final, NBCUniversal and Telemundo hosted a Playmakers Summit on July 15 at Rockefeller Center’s Studio 8H that brought together notable figures across sports, media and entertainment.
The summit featured three panels, kicking off with a conversation on sports media between NBC Nightly News anchor Tom Llamas and NBCUniversal News Group chairman Cesar Conde. This was followed by a chat with Latina artist Karol G and ended with a panel on the connection between sports, art and fashion.
