How do you build an effective tech stack and keep innovating when technology moves at such a pace? We take a deep dive into the evolution of the streaming model and its impact on demand for tech. Hear how our panellists are building new technology platforms and leaning into machine learning and AI to personalise and surface the right content to the right user at the right time.

Scaling TV
Sunday 17th September @ 13.00 – 13.45 in E102, Rai, Amsterdam
TV is in transition to full IP based delivery driven by consumer behaviour and the worldwide growth in Broadband connectivity. This introduces a whole new thinking on all aspects of building services, infrastructure, and distribution whether on fixed line broadband or 4GLTE/5G. It has an impact beyond the technology and the devices being used, as TV is a major part of our society in entertaining, informing, and communicating with viewers. Leading practitioners in our industry present their views on the thinking and impact of IP delivered TV.
Hosted and moderated by Ian Nock, Vice Chair of the IET Media Technical Network
This session is open to all attendees with an IBC exhibition badge.
What’s next for Audio Codecs?
Monday 18th September at 11.00 – 11.45am in E102, Rai, Amsterdam
Audio is a vital part of all media and decades of research into codecs have given us a sophisticated landscape of audio codecs which can deliver stereo music at very low bandwidths. With very low latency codecs available for contribution that also support surround sound and next generation audio throughout the broadcast chain, we ask what the future challenges are and what’s next for audio in television and radio.
Hosted and moderated by Russell Trafford-Jones, Chair of the IET Media Technical Network
This session is open to all attendees with an IBC exhibition badge.
