Merging the advanced technologies and the expertise that comprise the content and communications world together at the Javits Convention Center in New York City is the goal of the NAB Show New York… and from all of the pre-show information received, this appears to be—once again—another major event that should be of intense interest to SatMagazine readers.
This major show will occur from November 9th through the 10th and includes SATCON and Media in Action events and is co-located with infoCommConnections.
Back in 2014, the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) acquired the CCW trade show and then reintroduced this even as the NAB Show® New York. This event brings a far more connected community of broadcasters and storytellers into the spotlight, along with the brands, agencies and digital partners who are moving the content-centric landscape to new heights… especially in regard to those areas involved in satellite broadcasting…or what we like refer to as SatBroadcasting™.
Attendees will access the knowledge required to grow their businesses and produce epic projects. A crucial concern to business success for satellite owners and content providers is the undeniable fact that the architecture, the backbone of the broadcast and media industries, is moving rapidly. Without expert advice, much of the nexgen technology could well pass interested parties by without their awareness of such necessary informatiion.
NAB Show New York will provide attendees the opportunities to experience, first hand, the trends that are moving the entire global enterprise of content creation and delivery to new realms. Some of the attractions and pavilions for this 2016 event include:
This venue offers an unparalleled opportunity to explore and compare solutions for satellite-enabled communications, terrestrial wireless, mobile and hybrid technologies for global communications, content delivery and distribution. Exhibiting companies will be showcasing everything from satellite amplifiers, antennas, down/up converters, modems, network management hardware and software, RF over microwave, switches and test equipment to ENG/SNG, engineering services, IP Network Solutions, military SATCOM applications, mobile data, satellite services and more.
