Mandalay Entertainment Chairman Peter Guber, who is part owner of the Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Dodgers and Los Angeles Football Club, discusses a host of issues related to the business of sports, including what it takes -- and what it means -- to forge an emotional connection with the fans. He also discusses where the growth opportunities are in sports (hint: think population centers and media scale), as well as what he's learned from the movie business. Guber is co-executive chairman of Axiomatic Gaming, which owns Team Liquid. He also touches on virtual reality and how it can reshape the sports industry.
Guber has a long history in the entertainment industry. Prior to Mandalay, he was chairman of Sony Pictures Entertainment, chairman of Polygram Entertainment, co-founder of Casablanca Records & Filmworks and president of Columbia Pictures.
