International IPTV Partnerships to Become a Highlight at TV Connect EurAsiaEastEurope 2012 in Istanbul
Celebro Media Networks, international IPTV and broadcast specialists, are happy to announce its Director of Business & Consulting Wesley Dodd will lead the session 'TV Without Borders: How Can Innovative Delivery Methods Enrich Audience Understanding of World Events' at the sixth annual TV Connect Forum EurAsiaEastEurope 2012 to be held in Istanbul on 9-10 October 2012.
With the company’s innovative experience in facilitating international channel partnerships and delivering what appears to be conventional live TV but using IP technology, Celebro Media’s Wesley Dodd will focus on how two-way partnerships between local news channels and international broadcasters boost quality and build audience reach, how innovative delivery methods empower user experience across different screens and put the means of distribution in the hands of the audience, and how social media transform news-gathering. This expert discussion will take place on 10 October at 12:30pm in the conference stream ‘Achieving Quality of Experience through Innovative Architecture.’
Amongst its recent completed projects, Celebro Media Networks were Launch Consultants for BBC World Service's first TV news and current affairs programme in Swahili for African audiences, launched on 27 August. In this new international channel partnership, the BBC’s partner TV stations - Star TV in Tanzania and QTV in Kenya - will broadcast BBC Swahili’s 'World Compass', bringing the viewers 30 minutes of latest global news and analysis from the leading international broadcaster. Earlier this year, Celebro Media Networks were Launch Consultants for BBC World Service’s first international IPTV service with live news bulletins in Russian. This project is a partnership between BBC Russian and Russia's 24-hour channel TV Dozhd, delivering international news live from the New Broadcasting House to Russian-speaking audiences using IPTV technology*.
Over the last six years, the IP&TV Forum EurAsia East Europe event has been the leading regional platform driving the debate, development and deployment of IP delivered TV, reflecting on the industry-leading knowledge of Informa Telecoms & Media. Now branded as TV Connect to address all aspects of TV delivery including IPTV, OTTtv, multi-platform services and interactive content creation, this forum acts as a platform that explores all opportunities and business potential in the connected TV industry. TV Connect is a great opportunity to learn and share frontline TV industry experience.
