CBS bosses confirmed for MIPCOM

CBS production and distribution bosses will deliver a joint keynote at this year’s MIPCOM.

David Stapf, president of CBS Television Studios, and Armando Nuñez (pictured), president and CEO of CBS Global Distribution Group, will deliver a ‘Media Mastermind’ keynote on the Tuesday of the market in Cannes.

The pair will address the given theme for this year’s MIPCOM ‘the global quest for original content’ and specifically the rise of event series, digital distribution and CBS’s year-round commissioning, which has seen Under the Dome and Extant hit CBS’s summer schedules.

Nuñez was upped to president and CEO of the CBS Global Distribution Group in October 2012. He has been with CBS since 1999.
