The event, which will take place on October 13 at the Palais des Festivals, will feature a one-on-one interview with Le Goy conducted by Cynthia Littleton, Variety’s co-Editor in Chief.
In addition to Le Goy, Mediawan Pictures CEO Elisabeth d’Arvieu will also be part of the lineup for C-Suite Conversations.

With over two decades of experience at Sony, Le Goy has risen through the ranks with a focus on distribution and marketing, particularly in the international market. Prior to his time at Sony, he worked for Walt Disney Co. in Europe.
The keynote interview with Le Goy will precede an exclusive screening of “The Miniature Wife,” a highly anticipated relationship dramedy from Sony Pictures TV set to debut on Peacock next year. The screening, which will feature stars Matthew Macfadyen, O-T Fagbenle, and Sian Clifford, will take place on October 13 at 6 p.m. local time in the Palais’ Grand Auditorium and is open to all Mipcom attendees.
Overall, Le Goy’s participation in C-Suite Conversations and the upcoming screening of “The Miniature Wife” at Mipcom are sure to be highlights of the event, offering valuable insights into the evolving landscape of the global TV and film industry.
