Virtual NAB Show Set For May 13-14
NAB Show Express, what the association is describing as a “digital experience” to replace the pandemic-canceled NAB Show in Las Vegas, will take place May 13-14. The association says the “dynamic platform is free and designed to engage the NAB Show community by offering 24-hour access to premium content curated and customizable for the global media and entertainment community.”
NAB Show Express offers three educational channels, on-demand content and an exclusive Solutions Marketplace featuring exhibitor product information, announcements and demos.
Registration for the event will open on April 20 at NABShowExpress.com.
Powered by Brightcove Inc. and Frequency, NAB Show Express will comprise three education channels designed to mirror traditional NAB Show experiences. These are:
- BEIT Express, a channel focused on broadcast engineering and information technology.
- NAB Show Experience, offering a variety of educational sessions, product innovation showcases, and interviews with industry trailblazers.
- Tech Talks, an NAB Show Live Special Edition, produced by Broadcast Beat and showcasing relevant conversations with NAB Show community influencers.
Each channel will feature eight hours of content streamed daily and available on-demand to accommodate the global NAB Show audience. NAB Show Express will also offer NAB Show’s signature podcast, exploring relevant themes and featuring prominent speakers.
The digital platform will feature more than 100 educational sessions, including interactive panels and select sessions originally slated for NAB Show in Las Vegas, such as NAB President-CEO Gordon Smith’s State of the Industry address.
