Oak View Group
THE LATEST: As the coronavirus began to disrupt the world of sports and entertainment this year, Leiweke's Oak View Group took a deep dive into the impact of the pandemic and began trying to figure out how it could shape the future of live events. At the same time, Oak View continued to move forward with planning for new venues, announcing in March that it will build a 23, 500-seat arena in Manchester, England, at a cost of more than $400 million.
BACKGROUND: A former chief executive of Anschutz Entertainment Group, Leiweke co-founded Oak View Group in 2015 with Azoff Co. Chairman Irving Azoff. Oak View is a development and investment company for sports and entertainment events. Leiweke was named president of the NHL's Los Angeles Kings in 1996, becoming chief of the team's parent company, AEG, in 2001. Under Leiweke, the company built a portfolio of arenas, theaters, stadiums and clubs around the world, including L.A. Live.
