The Broadcast District will include conference sessions focused on radio and television, the Small and Medium Market Radio Forum, the Diversity Forum, the Leadership Foundation’s Focus on Leadership Speaker Series, and the Broadcast Engineering and IT Conference.
The Broadcast District will also feature the TV and Radio HQ, a prime networking destination for broadcasters that includes the following:
- NAB Member Lounge — a place for NAB members to host impromptu meetings, relax, connect with fellow broadcasters and enjoy complimentary refreshments.
- NAB Sip-and-Speak Series — a daily series of quick, intimate Q-and-A discussions with influential leaders in broadcasting.
- Discussion Den — a forum for deep-dive discussions and workshops on topics of interest to broadcasters.
- Happy Hour Events — social gatherings for television and radio broadcasters, featuring entertainment and networking.
NAB points out that badge access may vary for each conference.
“We are excited to enhance the experience for broadcasters with a centralized location that emphasizes community building and makes it easy to navigate the Show,” said NAB Executive Vice President of Industry Affairs April Carty-Sipp. “TV and radio broadcasters will receive tangible takeaways to help them generate revenue, streamline expenses and innovate while getting insights into what’s next for their business through a tailored experience designed to meet their needs.”
