Over 3,000 employees put in endless hours to deliver these redesigned Games in fresh and creative ways across all dayparts and platforms, under the direction of our top-tier engineering and production teams in Paris and Stamford. We are ecstatic that Americans welcomed and relished the Olympics in Paris as much as we have.

“Our NBCU team was thrilled to bring it home, and America was ready for this Olympics,” says Molly Solomon, Executive Producer & President, NBC Olympics Production. Finding the ideal balance between storytelling and innovation while presenting the competition, the athletes, and Paris in the most thorough manner possible was our goal from the first day of production preparation. Presenting the Olympics in Paris was an honor, and we want to continue serving the devoted spectators and supporters for many more Olympic Games.

“The Olympics reestablished its unique power to reassemble the American media audience,” says Gary Zenkel, President of NBC Olympics. As America came together in support of the 594 Team USA athletes and their stories, that shared experience spanned 17 days in a row across NBC, Peacock, and NBCU’s linear channels as well as in brief on social and digital platforms. Our Olympic marketers, who, like us, have always believed in the uniting effect of the Games, benefited alongside the American public.
