IPTV World Forum Asia
When: December 5-7, 2007
Where: Suntec, Singapore
Who It’s For: Similar crowds as the MEA show listed above, though with a different regional focus. (It's also a much larger show.)
Some may think that IPTV World Forum Asia is bound to be identical to their event in Middle East & Africa, but one may be surprised to find out that that is not the case. While both events focus on the IPTV marketplace, IPTV World Forum Asia has a bit more in store for attendees. Day one of the event looks at market dynamics, telco and IPTV evolution, and IPTV’s impact on the television market. Day two goes more in depth regarding content opportunities, on-demand IPTV content, internet TV, and more, while day three examines opportunities for reaching markets in urban and rural environments. Key speakers at World Forum Asia will include Paul Berrimen, CTO of PCCW, Hong Kong; Jukka Helin, Director of TV, Content & Digital Home for Teliasonera; Stephen Kim, Managing Director of Content HQ, for Hanaro Telecom, and many others. Estimates expect over 4000 visitors for the 150 exhibitors set to attend. And, as is the case with World Forum Middle East, parties interested only in the exhibit floor are able to obtain a free exhibit floor pass from the IPTV website.
