Some executives manage legacies. Others build them. Joaquin Duro is firmly in the second group.
As Executive Vice President of Sports and Head of Streaming for NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises, Duro leads Telemundo Deportes with a vision that extends well beyond the traditional screen: production, programming, acquisitions, operations, and multiplatform content – all in close collaboration with NBC Sports and Peacock.
His portfolio speaks for itself: the FIFA World Cup™, the Olympic Games, NFL Sunday Night Football, the Premier League, and Liga MX's Chivas de Guadalajara. But what truly sets him apart is how he has transformed that platform. A digital media trailblazer with over two decades of experience, he was a central figure in Telemundo's coverage of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ – which produced the most-streamed World Cup match in U.S. media history, in any language.
That milestone was built on years of digital investment when few were paying attention. As Senior Vice President of AVOD Streaming and Digital, he shaped Telemundo's digital strategy for the Olympic Games, NFL Super Bowls, U.S. presidential elections, and the Billboard Latin Music Awards.
Before Telemundo, he held senior roles at Univision Communications Inc. His career has earned him three Emmy Awards, eight Cynopsis Media honors, and two nominations for Digital Executive of the Year.
A Florida International University graduate in Language and Literature with a minor in Journalism, Duro is a product of Miami – a city that, like him, thrives in two languages. As the media landscape rapidly evolves, he has demonstrated for years that Spanish-language sports go beyond passive viewing. It's something you stream, share, and live – on every screen, all at once.
