Realscreen West, running from June 6 to 8 in Dana Point, California, is welcoming another top unscripted executive to its roster of keynotes.

As part of his current role as Head of Unscripted Development, Global Formats, CJ Yu leads a team that oversees unscripted slates for newer Prime Video territories such as Australia, Canada and the Middle East, and supports the development of unscripted originals across Europe, Asia, Africa and Latin America. He drives the expansion of hit original franchises around the world, such as All or Nothing, LOL: Last One Laughing, Luxe Listings and Wild and Free.

In this keynote conversation, Yu will discuss what he and his team are looking to achieve with their producing partners on the local originals front, their strategy around global unscripted formats, and will provide perspective on the kind of series they’re looking to put into the development pipeline.

Yu joins previously announced keynotes from American Ninja Warrior and Hell’s Kitchen executive producer Arthur Smith and The CW’s unscripted head Heather Olander at the 2023 edition of Realscreen West, the largest gathering for the global unscripted content community on the U.S. West Coast.
