Each of them will be given a unique experience throughout the one-year program ranging from working within studio, event, and international business segments. The cohort will also learn and take part in contributing to other areas in the company.
Senior Vice President of Production, and Office of the President, Tina Thornton said, “Our goal is to make ESPN Next the most dynamic development program in the industry; a pipeline to ESPN’s next generation of leaders.”
