Name: Robins Executive Speaker Series: Spring 2023 - Dave Watson, Comcast Cable
Date: February 21, 2023
Time: 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM EST
Event Description:
Dean Mickey Quiñones and the Robins School of Business invite you to our next Robins Executive Speaker Series, our school's premiere venue for exploring the issues facing organizations today and the individuals who lead them. This series also enhances connections between our students, the school, and the community.
 
In this installment we welcome Dave Watson, R'80, president and chief executive officer of Comcast Cable.
 
The pandemic and the resulting move to virtual work seriously tested our broadband network infrastructure and allowed many activities, such as education, to continue. As the move to digital content on an ever-growing number of streaming platforms increases, our reliance on this infrastructure has become even more acute. In a wide-ranging conversation, Mr. Watson will discuss these and other trends impacting the cable and entertainment business, including internationalization and efforts to bridge the digital divide. He will also reflect on the experiences and mentors that took him from a political science major to the upper echelons of this dynamic and multi-faceted industry.
