Sports Summit Opening Remarks and Keynote: PEAK HUMAN: Unleashing the Champion Within

Sports transcend competition—they are a global language, a cultural force, and, at times, a near-spiritual experience. No one understands this better than Gotham Chopra, filmmaker, storyteller, and co-founder of Religion of Sports with Tom Brady and Michael Strahan. In this compelling keynote, Chopra explores the evolving intersection of sports, entertainment, and storytelling, diving into how the narratives of athletes, teams, and moments of triumph or heartbreak captivate audiences worldwide and fuel our own quests to reach our Peak Selves and full Human Potential. How do sports shape identity, inspire communities, and create myths that stand the test of time? Drawing from his work on groundbreaking sports documentaries, branded collaborations and his vision for Religion of Sports, Chopra shares insights on the art of sports storytelling and its growing influence in media, technology, culture, and wellbeing.

Featuring Gotham Chopra, Co-Founder, Religion of Sports; Collin Jones, Executive Vice President of Corporate Strategy & Developement, Cumulus Media/President, Westwood One; and Curtis LeGeyt, President and CEO, National Association of Broadcasters.
