What we do
Founded in 1997, the Stern & Tisch Entertainment Business Association’s mission is to develop a diverse community of talented NYU students interested in the entertainment industry. STEBA provides a forum for student interactions with industry professionals, a platform for learning to navigate the industr(ies), the opportunity for students to gain the professional skills to succeed in entertainment, as well as the chance to connect with similarly-aligned peers. Through our professional panels, social events, and skills-development programs, STEBA offers a unique advantage to students pursuing careers in film, television, music, sports, games, publishing, talent, and more.
Students from all NYU undergraduate schools are welcome at STEBA! There is no formal membership process to join the club. Subscribe to our email newsletter at bit.ly/STEBlast to stay up to date on our programming.
Mentorship
The STEBA Mentorship Program matches qualified student peer mentors in the entertainment industry with young students to offer career advice, academic advancement, and social development. Your mentor won't be an uptight judge; they'll be a college student just like you! They'll help you fix your resume, share their contacts, give you career advice, and even kick back and get ice cream with you.
We look for new mentors and mentees at the beginning of each semester, so be sure to look out for updates in our email newsletter!
Programming
Our events include professional programs featuring industry professionals, creatives, and recruiters from major entertainment companies; social programs to cultivate community; and skills-development workshops.
STEBA has hosted professionals from a variety of industry players, including the following:

BREAKING DOWN THE INDUSTRY
Enjoy “Breaking Down the Industry,” STEBA’s newsletter designed to translate the latest entertainment business concepts and controversies using easy-to-understand terminology and plenty of context.
For us, late Spring signals approaching deadlines and graduation, but in entertainment – it's upfront season!
On Wednesday, regulators dealt a potentially fatal blow to Microsoft’s hopes to acquire Activision Blizzard, the video game company behind Call of Duty, World of Warcraft, and the Candy Crush Saga, to name a few. The UK’s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) blocked the deal, citing concerns about anticompetitiveness in the cloud gaming sector. Microsoft will have a chance to appeal.
As streaming takes the industry by storm, it almost feels as if you’re in a whole new world when your eyes are glued to your screen. Well now, you really could be. As media convergence within the industry is amplified by development in both content and strategy, a new player enters the arena. Streaming in the metaverse, a new collaborative endeavor between NBCUniversal’s Peacock and Meta’s VR division, introduces a fusion of entertainment experiences with unique value offerings that the industry has yet to see.
