El duelo por el título de "Campeón del Mundo de Ajedrez" se disputará durante 3 semanas, entre el 11 y el 30 de noviembre de 2016 entre Magnus Carlsen (25 años), de Noruega y Sergey Karjakin (26 años), de Rusia.
“Sigo pendiente de recibir las reacciones también del Presidente de EE.UU. Barack Obama, y de los candidatos a la presidencia, Donald Trump e Hillary Clinton. Al menos no me han dado la negativa tampoco hasta ahora", agregó Ilyumzhinov added.
El lugar del encuentro será el Fulton Market, a unos cinco minutos andando de Wall Street. El edificio albergará también las salas VIP con vistas panorámicas del puente de Brooklyn y de la sala de juego, una tienda, un restaurante, sala de comentaristas, estudios de televisión, etc.
El lío "amoroso" que tiene Silicon Valley con Magnus Carlsen en particular ha sido documentado extensamente. El noruego ha sido invitado en varias ocasiones y ha sido nombrado Director de Honor del programa "First Move", un programa respaldado por las empresas de Silicon Valley y sus más destacados respresentantes.

En 2014, Magnus Carlsen apareció en la televisión noruega NRK en un programa de tertulia que había invitado también al fundador de Microsoft, Bill Gates. Carlsen y Gates se enfrentaron en una partida de ajedrez "bala".
Bill Gates no se hacía ilusiones y comentó que la cosa estaba clara sin siquiera comenzar a mover las piezas
El jugador más fuerte del mundo contra el hombre más rico del mundo concluyó con la "muerte" (sobre el tablero) de ese último en 79 segundos.
Por aquella época, Mark Zuckerberg, fundador de Facebook, igualmente mostró interés por el ajedrez, aunque por enfrentarse con el Campeón del Mundo, sino por recibir una clase magistral particular con Carlsen, para mejorar su juego con el mejor jugador el mundo.
