MPEGIF Sponsored Event


IPTV World Forum 

March 12 – 14, 2008

Olympia London

At the heart of everything at IPTV World Forum is IP video. Leading from the
front in 2008, as they have at our last three annual exhibitions, are the
telcos, ISPs and other alternative broadband providers. As always, this
event will address all the significant telco-centric IPTV issues with rigour
and insight. Across all conference streams there will be the usual - and
almost unique - emphasis on speakers from operators and content owners:
those people who make the big decisions and drive deployments.

Confirmed speakers include:

o         Sebastian Moeritz, MPEGIF President
