GSE Worldwide Unveils 'It's Up For Debate'

GSE Worldwide, a frontrunner in sports and entertainment marketing, recently announced an exciting new initiative named 'It's Up For Debate'. This national debate series aims to unite various political perspectives ahead of the crucial 2026 midterm elections. Moderated by the esteemed Charlie Rose, the series is designed to promote informed discussions on pressing issues affecting the nation.

About the Debate Series

Slated to kick off in September 2026, 'It's Up For Debate' will embark on a six-city tour across major U.S. markets. Each event will feature notable political figures from diverse backgrounds engaging in live debates on significant topics such as healthcare, immigration, foreign policy, and civic trust. The series is presented by Polymarket, reinforcing its commitment to facilitating civil discourse among differing ideologies.

Moderator Charlie Rose

Charlie Rose, a journalist recognized for his Emmy and Peabody Awards, will guide these discussions. Rose’s expertise in facilitating meaningful conversations on critical societal matters enables a rich dialogue, providing a platform for political leaders to express their views while engaging directly with the audience.

Event Details

The inaugural tour includes the following cities and events:

• - New York, NY - September 23: Andrew Yang vs. Scott Jennings

Promoting Civil Discourse

GSE aims to create an atmosphere where opinions can be shared without hostility, encouraging attendees to engage with the political process actively.

Jon Venison, Executive Vice President at GSE, expressed enthusiasm for the project: "At GSE, we’re dedicated to producing live events that showcase exceptional talent. 'It's Up For Debate' epitomizes this vision, featuring a diverse array of political voices and an esteemed moderator like Charlie Rose. The series promises to provide an innovative approach to political programming by directly involving audiences in the discourse."
