Dear MPEGIF News Readers,

 

I hope that you find the following information informative and interesting. 

 

I am happy to announce that MPEGIF will once again be presenting a full day
Master Class at IBC2007. In the Master Class entitled, “Next Generation
Television Technology and Business Models”, operators of new IP-based
television services and the technologists enabling them will exchange their
views on trends and technologies that are changing the way digital
multimedia is created, compressed, stored, delivered and monetized.

In addition MPEGIF is also planning to host a Networking Party at the Hard
Rock Café in Amsterdam during IBC. If you are interested in sponsoring these
two events please contact Nicola Wissler at
<mailto:nicola.wissler-8/[email protected]> nicola.wissler-8/[email protected]

 

One last note, MPEGIF is currently undergoing membership renewals. If you
are interested in joining the forum or would like more information about the
MPEG Industry Forum please go to:
<http://www.m4if.org/m4if/index.php?sub=m4if> What is MPEGIF . Members who
send their payment by June 39th will receive free banner advertising space
on the MPEGIF home page which will run through IBC 2007. 

 

Kind regards,

 

Sebastian Moeritz

MPEGIF President
