<<Content discovery in an “all you can eat” world of TV>> Going beyond the transaction, how can we revolutionise the customer experience to help consumers choose, not just give them choice? Next week we’re bringing you the bigger picture on #discoverability. In this exclusive session at the DTG Summit next Wednesday, our panellists will examine how current content platforms are personalising the way customers connect with the content they love and are offering more ways to discover new content, with ease. We will identify where there is room for improvement - including navigation, use of metadata, voice-controlled search, and predict what content discovery mechanisms we'll all be relying on come 2030. Join our fantastic panellists Oliver Davies, Julie Mitchelmore, Alexandra Wall and Jonathan Broughton as we leap forward into the next iteration of content discoverability.

Do you want access to the bigger picture? In October 2023, the UK’s communications regulator, Ofcom, launched a Call for Evidence asking for input on how changing audience habits, in particular the increase in internet-based viewing, will affect the future of TV distribution. It is now preparing a report to Government which will examine the impact of recent market developments, how audiences watch content, and the longer-term impact that internet TV distribution will have on current services and platforms. At TV: The Bigger Picture next week we’ll hear from Ofcom Group Director, Strategy and Research Yih-Choung Teh who will actively explore “The future of TV in a digital age: Protecting and enhancing the #media ecosystem” Delegates will hear: · The initial findings from the call for evidence · What universality means for a fragmented audience · What these shifts mean for digital inclusion Make sure you’re in the room on May 8th.

Well today is the day! The requirements mandated by the Product Security and Telecoms Infrastructure Act need to be in place for ALL connected and connectable devices as of today, or companies risk enforcement measures including exclusion for the UK market and fines of £10m or 4% of global turnover (whichever is greater). Any company that isn't confident they are complying with the letter of the law, or isn't sure if their product is affected, can get in touch now and we can help. https://lnkd.in/eHBuKjeB It may sound obvious, but it's better to be safe than sorry! #cybersecurity #iot #connecteddevices

Talk about a pleasure and a privilege 😊
Yesterday, our lucky Mentees had the privilege of attending an incredible workshop led by Richard Lindsay-Davies, CEO of Digital TV Group (DTG). Titled 'The Secret of Successful Innovation,' the session left our Mentees feeling inspired, as they walked away equipped with practical knowledge and perspectives to drive innovation in their own endeavours. Following the workshop, attendees had the opportunity to connect and exchange ideas during a drinks reception. The evening was kindly hosted by Vizrt at their amazing London offices, with the invaluable help from our Mentors, Amisa Saari-Stout and Vanessa Walmsley. A huge thanks to everyone who made this event possible, and to our Mentees for their participation and enthusiasm! 🚀 #RiseWorkshops #WomenInBroadcast #Empowerment #Networking #Innovation

🌟 Join us at "TV: The Bigger Picture" on May 8th! 📺✨ Curious about the future of media and entertainment? 🚀 Dive deep into industry insights with Hendrik McDermott, MD - EMEA Networks, Hayu & International Direct-to-Consumer at NBCUniversal. Here's a sneak peek into his thoughts ahead of his Bigger Picture interview on stage: 🎥 What makes the media and entertainment industry special? "Having the opportunity to deliver/tell great stories, coupled with the opportunity to innovate at pace, is a pretty compelling combination." 🤖 Which area of innovation excites you most and why? "I’m fascinated by all the new AI tools that are being developed because they are challenging the industry’s established norms and pushing established players to be even better, in order to stay competitive." 🌍 What's the biggest challenge the industry faces today? "The rapidly changing landscape of content consumption means that TV/content providers must compete with ever-wider forms of entertainment – all vying for the same eyeballs." 🌟 Best advice you have received? “Always strive for progress, not perfection. I’ve never been able to dwell on one thing long enough to make it perfect. (This advice served me particularly well when pivoting my career to incorporate streaming – a journey that’s involved lots of iterating and experimentation.)" 📺 Current favourite TV shows? VEEP (which I’m catching up on, from the beginning, via NOW) because I’m a comedy fan and it’s so sharply written and laugh-out-loud funny. But on Hayu, it’s #BelowDeck – where the only thing deeper than the ocean is the crew’s secrets! 🤔 What would people be surprised to learn about you? "As a citizen of three countries – holding passports from Canada, the UK and Germany – I have visa-free travel to almost anywhere! (I also make a mean hot sauce.)"🌶 Ready to gain exclusive insights from Hendrik and other industry leaders? Don't miss out! Register now and unlock the bigger picture of television's future! 🌟🎬 Register here: https://lnkd.in/efPpt7yh Until the end of the month delegated can use the code April10 to access a 10% reduction on all tickets. #BiggerPicture #IndustryInsights #DTGSummit #ConferenceCountdown
