\n\tNEW YORK: Cesar Conde has been appointed to the newly created position of chairman for NBCUniversal International Group and NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises, while Joe Uva will transition into an advisory role for NBC Deportes.<\/p>\n
\n\tNBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises includes the Telemundo Network, NBC Universo Cable Network, Telemundo International, Telemundo local stations, Telemundo Digital Media and Emerging Business, and NBC Deportes. He takes up the post as of October 12, and will continue to report to NBCUniversal CEO Steve Burke.<\/p>\n
\n\tUva had been serving as chairman of Hispanic enterprises and content at NBCUniversal<\/span>. He becomes an advisor for the NBC Deportes move from Hialeah to the NBC Sports Group’s state-of the-art broadcast facility in Stamford. NBC Deportes produces all sports events for Telemundo, NBC Universo and the Hispanic digital platforms, including the upcoming 2016 Rio Olympics and the first of three FIFA World Cup broadcasts beginning 2018 in Russia.<\/p>\n \n\tMost recently, Conde was executive VP at NBCUniversal, which he joined in October 2013. Prior to this, he had been president of Univision since 2009.<\/p>\n \n\t“Telemundo is one of the fastest growing parts of our company and an important area of focus for us,” said Burke. “I am confident that Cesar’s deep knowledge of the business and keen understanding of the changing marketplace make him the right leader to help build on its strong momentum.”<\/p>\n \tAdded Burke, "Two and half years ago I asked Joe to take over our Hispanic initiatives and in that time, Joe's leadership has helped to propel Telemundo's record growth. Telemundo’s market share is at an all-time high; it has significantly closed the ratings gap with Univision; and has consistently been number one during the important 10 p.m. time period. A couple of months ago Joe and I began talking about his successor and we agreed that Cesar was the perfect choice. Cesar and I have asked Joe to stay on as senior advisor for the next several months to help with the transition and the move of NBC Deportes to Stamford."<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" NEW YORK: Cesar Conde has been appointed to the newly created position of chairman for NBCUniversal International Group and NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises, while Joe Uva will transition into an advisory role for NBC Deportes.
