MPEGIF Sponsored Event


IPTV World Forum Latin America

January 29-30, 2008

Rio, Brazil

The second annual IPTV World Forum Latin America finds local IPTV
deployments moving forward rapidly, spurred on by continued strong growth in
the number of broadband DSL subscribers in the region. Brasil Telecom (BrT)
announced early in 2007 that it definitely plans to rollout its IPTV service
in the second half of 2007, and many more large local telcos are also
readying to launch their own services. 

For more information go to: IPTV Latin America

The following MPEGIF Members are confirmed to speak:

Mobile TV Latin America

January 29 - 30, 2008

Rio, Brazil

Mobile TV is creating waves in Latin America with its burgeoning markets and
demand for compelling content. Following launches in Asia and then Europe
and North America, Latin America has the advantage of being able to learn
lessons and thereby avoid the pitfalls which affected the success of the
industry in the early moving regions.
