NBCUniversal’s Second Century Runs Through the Fandom Machine
The company that helped teach America to watch television now has to make broadcast, streaming, cinema and theme parks behave like one business. Its advantage is not a single screen - it is the loop between them.
Warner Bros. Discovery
Warner Bros. Discovery owns more than a shelf of famous titles. It owns a system for sending the same story through theaters, television, streaming, games, licensing and experiences - while managing the costly tension between a growing digital future and a shrinking cable past.
Comcast
Comcast built a $123.7 billion business by owning more of the trip from socket to screen than almost anyone else. Now it is pulling that empire apart to see whether focus can do what scale no longer does.
TwelveLabs
TwelveLabs is a San Francisco-based AI company building video-native multimodal foundation models that give machines the ability to see, hear, and understand video the way humans do. Its flagship models - Marengo for embedding and retrieval and Pegasus for video-to-text generation - power enterprise applications in media, government, sports, and security, enabling precise semantic search, summarization, and insight extraction from video at scale. With 30,000+ developers on its platform and backing from NVIDIA, Databricks, Snowflake, and In-Q-Tel, TwelveLabs is becoming the standard infrastructure layer for video intelligence.
