NAB Show will debut a new "Business of Entertainment" track at its 2025 event, held April 5-9 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Developed in collaboration with "The Ankler," the program will feature key industry discussions, including a special appearance by WWE President Nick Khan and Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque.

With WWE entering a new phase of global expansion, talent development, and technological integration, Khan and Levesque will discuss the company's ongoing evolution in a moderated session led by "The Ankler"'s Sean McNulty, author of "The Wakeup" newsletter and host of "The Ankler" podcast.

The "Business of Entertainment" track will examine topics such as media dealmaking, content bundling, new advertising models, and the evolving landscape of Hollywood and the creator economy. Attendees will gain insights from ten curated sessions featuring top executives in media and entertainment, all accessible with an Exhibits Pass.

"We're thrilled to welcome Nick Khan and Paul Levesque to take the stage at our new "Business of Entertainment" track at NAB Show," said Karen Chupka, Executive Vice President and Managing Director of NAB Global Connections and Events. "Partnering with "The Ankler" for this track brings a fresh, dynamic voice to cover the movers and shakers and game-changing content coming out of Hollywood."

The addition of this track underscores NAB Show's focus on industry trends, technology, and business strategies shaping the future of content creation and distribution.

Janice Min, CEO and Editor-in-Chief of Ankler Media, emphasized the importance of the new collaboration. "NAB Show is the best stage in the world to highlight the future of entertainment and media, and I'm excited for "The Ankler" to be its partner in delivering the "Business of Entertainment" live in Las Vegas - smart, newsy and unforgettable conversations between our top journalists and some of the biggest names in the space."

The "Business of Entertainment" track will run for two days during the event, featuring discussions designed to help professionals refine their skills and connect with industry leaders.
