The Content Delivery & Security Association gathers security executives for an afternoon of thought-leadership and technology solutions at their event that connects people as much as it enlightens our community about the future. This year’s theme of connected complexity examines the global entertainment supply chain and take you through a security journey into areas we should all be considering as “next” and “critical” to our M+E industry.

The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences brings the Technology and Engineering Emmy Awards to NAB Show. This presentation honors a living individual, a company, or a scientific or technical organization for developments and/or standardization involved in engineering technologies that either represent so extensive an improvement on existing methods or are so innovative in nature that they materially have affected television.

Immediately preceding NAB Show, the Public Media Technology Summit includes sessions on RF, IT and general technology practice and management, particularly as they intersect with ATSC 3.0/NextGen TV, IP-based facilities, cloud-based production, and the related business and service opportunities that support public media’s unique mission. It is focused on public TV technologists, but is open to all media professionals.

Anne Schelle, managing director of the Pearl TV consortium, will receive the highest honor in TVNewsCheck’s Women in Technology Awards for her tireless efforts to rally the broadcast industry around the ATSC 3.0 standard while convincing manufacturers to produce compatible sets.
