He joined Fox seven years ago. Before that, he was showrunner on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars and Head of Entertainment Development at BBC Worldwide.
“Being part of Banff’s 45th milestone year is quite an honor,” said Wade.
“This annual must-attend festival is like no other, uniting our industry in celebration of creativity and forward-thinking innovation. I’m very much look forward to sharing Fox Entertainment’s global growth story and the strategies that are driving our content business.”
More details about the festival are incoming. Executive Director Jenn Kuzmyk said: “We’ll be launching more new approaches to foster industry collaboration, inspiration and business development with formats that can only happen at this festival.”
The fest including Rockie Awards and Gala takes place June 9 to 12.
