‘Road to CSVS’ Webinar Series Kicks Off Oct. 25 With Chris Bevilacqua

The Sports Video Group, in partnership with the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA), is pleased to announce the debut of a free webinar series aimed at video professionals in the college marketplace.

The “Road to CSVS” will host the first edition of the series titled “Maximize Your Video Rights – Your Most Important Asset” with guest Chris Bevilacqua of Bevilacqua Media Co. on Tuesday Oct. 25 at 2 p.m. ET. The discussion will focus on how any rightsholder can evaluate, build, and execute a sound strategy across multiple platforms.

Bevilacqua, founder of College Sports TV and currently CEO of Bevilacqua Media Co. (BMC),  is widely considered one of the foremost experts in building successful startup networks. Most recently, he was a primary architect behind the creation of Pac 12 Media Enterprises and its Pac 12 Networks and Pac 12 Digital Network as well as the record-setting Fox-ESPN agreements. Prior to that, Bevilacqua helped author the first-of-its-kind collegiate-conference network in 2007 with the Mountain West Conference, which created a model that led to the launch of the Big Ten Network in 2010. BMC was behind the Texas Rangers RSN agreement with Fox, the largest of its kind in MLB history.

The Road to the CSVS webinar series is designed to explore topics that are critical to the success of video at the university-athletic-department level. SVG, in a partnership with NACDA, will host a new webinar each month, leading up to the fourth-annual College Sports Video Summit in Atlanta in June 2012.
