Bonus TL;DR
- Organizers of a major upcoming prediction markets summit have secured a strategic media partnership with a leading financial broadcasting network to expand their institutional audience.
- The collaboration will feature live broadcast coverage and specialized panel discussions as event operators aim to integrate event contracts more deeply into traditional Wall Street infrastructure.
NEXTPredict NYC has named Markets Media its official media partner for the Oct. 22-23, 2026 prediction markets summit at Convene Hudson Yards in New York City.
The partnership matters because the event is positioning prediction markets more directly within the institutional finance conversation. According to the announcement, Markets Media will provide live Trader TV coverage, lead panel discussions, help recruit senior speakers and promote the summit across its editorial and digital channels.
NEXTPredict said the two-day event will bring together 2,500 operators, investors, regulators, market makers, founders, suppliers and media. Across five stages, the summit is expected to cover regulation, liquidity, market infrastructure, institutional capital, forecasting applications, product development and media’s role in distributing market signals.
What Markets Media will do at the summit
Markets Media said it will bring Trader TV to the event for a full day of live broadcasting. The company will also support onsite programming and use channels including its website, email, social media, From the Markets newsletter and Traders Magazine to promote the conference.
Pierre Lindh, co-founder and managing director of NEXTPredict, said in a statement that prediction markets are moving into a broader financial discussion and that established market participants need to be part of that conversation.
“Prediction markets are moving into a broader financial conversation, making it essential that the people who understand how established markets function are part of the discussion,” Lindh said.
He added that Markets Media’s audience and experience in institutional finance should strengthen discussion around how prediction markets develop and where they fit in the wider financial system.
Why the partnership is notable
The announcement underscores how prediction markets are increasingly being framed alongside topics familiar to traditional market participants, including liquidity, market structure, technology and institutional participation.
David Griffiths, president of Markets Media Group, said those are issues his audience already follows closely.
“Prediction markets are raising important questions about liquidity, market structure, technology and institutional participation, all areas our audience engages with every day,” Griffiths said.
He said NEXTPredict offers Markets Media a chance to connect its audience directly with the people building, funding, regulating and trading these markets.
The summit is scheduled for Oct. 22-23 in New York. The announcement did not identify which senior speakers will participate or which specific panels Markets Media will lead.
