Recognizing Individuals and Organizations who are Leaders in the Hispanic Television and Video Industry

NEW YORK, July 22, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- NYC Television & Video Week will present three awards at the 14(th) Annual Hispanic Television Summit on Thursday, October 20, 2016 at the Grand Hyatt in NYC. Recipients include Cesar Conde, chairman of NBCUniversal International Group and NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises, DIRECTV, and Univision Network hosts Lili Estefan and Raúl De Molina.

"The Hispanic Television Summit has honored some of the most prestigious names in the industry-from individuals like boxing champion and entrepreneur Oscar De La Hoya, news anchors like María Elena Salinas, Jorge Ramos, telenovela actress and host Lucero, and soccer sportscaster Andrés Cantor to organizations like Major League Soccer, Comcast, Dish, and Verizon," says Louis Hillelson, VP/group publisher of Broadcasting & Cable/Multichannel News. "We are excited to add four new names to the esteemed list."

The 2016 Award for Executive Leadership in Hispanic Television & Video will be presented for the first time, and NYC Television & Video Week is honored to name Cesar Conde from NBCUniversal as the inaugural recipient. In addition to Conde's social and community initiatives aimed at empowering the Hispanic community in areas of education, health and finance, his many years of dedication to the financial growth and development of the Hispanic segment within the television industry are venerable.

As a video, internet, and mobile service provider to the greatest number of potential Hispanic customers, at&t/DIRECTV will be given the Award for Corporate Leadership in Hispanic Television & Video, which will be accepted by Karla G. Sustaita, director of multicultural video products for AT&T Entertainment Group. DIRECTV offers a diversified set of features to provide Hispanics with affordable access and more choices for video services integrated with mobile and high-speed Internet.

The third and final accolade of the day is the legacy award of this conference. The 2016 Award for Outstanding Achievement in Hispanic Television, will go to Lili Estefan and Raúl De Molina, co-hosts of Univision Network's "El Gordo y la Flaca" (The Scoop and The Skinny). Their body of work on the popular, long-running Hispanic entertainment news program has been delighting audiences since 1998.

In addition to the awards ceremony and luncheon, the Hispanic Television Summit will also present a full-day program that focuses on expanding the business environment of Hispanic TV and Video for this $1.5 trillion market segment. Topics will include advances in advertising, viewership research, promotion, multi-platform distribution, and content from sports, news and reality TV genres, as well as telenovelas, musical concerts, award shows and comedies.

This Summit is produced for the fourteenth time by Schramm Marketing Group.
