Top three sessions in 2011 included:

Jana Bennett, the President Worldwide Networks and Global iplayer at BBC Worldwide on Day 1 elaborated on Digital Expansion for an Established Player in the keynote panel discussion. Although there is plenty of room for its channels and its programme output, BBC Worldwide is also moving into new technological areas. The international launch of the highly-acclaimed iplayer is the most prominent example of this, so we heard how is it faring and what comes next.

The panel discussion on Multi-Screen TV Rights and Consistent Delivery at 12.30pm on Day 2 tackled issues involved in securing content rights and delivering a consistent user experience to multiple screens. We discussed how viewers can easily search and discover the content they want in a TV everywhere world. Expert insights and guidance came from TV Genius and MTV Networks International.

Over 42 million US and European homes are watching connected TV services, according to research from Strategy Analytics. Can connected TV offer a low-cost platform for pay-TV services? As the universe of internet-connected devices expands, do service providers still need to invest in proprietary equipment? We heard answers and more during the panel discussion: Connected TV and OTT: ‘Rerun TV’ or a Threat to Established Pay TV Players , at 12pm on Day 1, led by Ooyala, Freeview, Boxee and BT Wholesale.
