New Business Models, Best Practices and Technology
Innovation Driving the Growth of Live Event Television
Live events—from traditional powerhouses like sports and award shows to newer initiatives such as games, spectacles, talk shows and musicals—have never been hotter. The urgency around seeing them live has stoked demand among viewers and advertisers, and helped unlock the potential of production technology and social media.
The Business of Live Television Summit will identify the best practices being developed around live events and provide answers to such complex questions as:
• How do companies create successful initiatives, from product integrations to marketing campaigns, as the live marketplace gets more crowded?
• How do producers game-plan for telecasts that are by nature unpredictable?
• What new technologies are improving workflows, reducing costs and increasing
the production value of live broadcasts?
Keynote Speakers:
Andy Cohen, Host & Executive Producer Bravo’s “Watch What Happens Live”
Stephen Espinoza, EVP, GM, Showtime Sports & Event Programming Showtime Networks Inc.
Don Roy King, Director NBC’s “Saturday Night Live”

The Business of Multiplatform TV
Summit - New York
Affinia Manhattan, 371 7th Avenue (at 31st St.) New York, N.Y.
Wednesday, November 12, 2014
Website: : www.NYCTelevisionWeek.com/business-of-multiplatform-tv/
The introduction of personal, mobile smart devices has brought television beyond the living room and into the hands of millions who prefer their TV “to go.” Rather than families viewing TV together, we now have millions of individuals seeking their own customized viewing experiences. This shift has altered the thinking of who comprises a “TV household” and has thereby redefined the business for TV rights fees, pay TV subscriptions, audience measurement and advertising rates.
The Business of Multiplatform TV Summit addresses this new direction for the business of all things multiplatform. Whether you use terms like “second screen” or “TV everywhere” or “OTT,” the fact is that the TV viewing experience is now very different because of the mass accessibility to new technologies, especially personal “smart” viewing devices.
TENTATIVE AGENDA (Subject to Change):
7:30 a.m.-8:30 a.m.—Registration/Continental Breakfast
8:30 a.m.-8:45 a.m.—Opening Remarks
8:45 a.m.-9:10 a.m.—Opening Keynote: TBA
9:10a.m.-9:55a.m.—Can TV Everywhere Pay the Freight?
Usage of authenticated TV Everywhere services are steadily on the rise, but supporting video on multiple screens over multiple types of connections remains a significant cost center for most Pay-TV providers and programmers. This panel will discuss dynamic ad insertion, targeted advertising and other money-making options that can help to bring balance to the TVE economic equation.
· Steve Reynolds, Chief Technology Officer, Imagine Communications
· More to come
9:55a.m.-10:40a.m.—Smoothing the Path to TV Everywhere
Consumers love the concept of getting video anywhere and everywhere, but they also need the authentication process and navigation process to be easier. This panel will feature companies and products that are making progress on solving those issues and discuss what hang-ups still need to be addressed.
· Speakers TBA
10:40a.m.-11:25a.m.—Scaling Up for Live Streaming
Thanks to support for several high profile events, including the Super Bowl, the World Cup and the Sochi Games, obtaining access to live events streamed over the Internet is rapidly becoming a consumer expectation. But delivering live streams to tens of thousands of users, let alone millions, without buffering, delays and other technical hiccups and glitches remains a significant challenge. How are programmers, service providers, and over-the-top video players scaling up their bandwidth and underlying systems to address the consumer’s ever-increasing appetite for live streamed video?

The introduction of personal, mobile smart devices has brought television beyond the living room and into the hands of millions who prefer their TV “to go.” Rather than families viewing TV together, we now have millions of individuals seeking their own customized viewing experiences. This shift has altered the thinking of who comprises a “TV household” and has thereby redefined the business for TV rights fees, pay TV subscriptions, audience measurement and advertising rates.
The Business of Multiplatform TV Summit addresses this new direction for the business of all things multiplatform. Whether you use terms like “second screen” or “TV everywhere” or “OTT,” the fact is that the TV viewing experience is now very different because of the mass accessibility to new technologies, especially personal “smart” viewing devices.
TENTATIVE AGENDA (Subject to Change):
7:30 a.m.-8:30 a.m.—Registration/Continental Breakfast
8:30 a.m.-8:45 a.m.—Opening Remarks
8:45 a.m.-9:10 a.m.—Opening Keynote: TBA
9:10a.m.-9:55a.m.—Can TV Everywhere Pay the Freight?
Usage of authenticated TV Everywhere services are steadily on the rise, but supporting video on multiple screens over multiple types of connections remains a significant cost center for most Pay-TV providers and programmers. This panel will discuss dynamic ad insertion, targeted advertising and other money-making options that can help to bring balance to the TVE economic equation.
· Steve Reynolds, Chief Technology Officer, Imagine Communications
· More to come
9:55a.m.-10:40a.m.—Smoothing the Path to TV Everywhere
Consumers love the concept of getting video anywhere and everywhere, but they also need the authentication process and navigation process to be easier. This panel will feature companies and products that are making progress on solving those issues and discuss what hang-ups still need to be addressed.
· Speakers TBA
10:40a.m.-11:25a.m.—Scaling Up for Live Streaming
Thanks to support for several high profile events, including the Super Bowl, the World Cup and the Sochi Games, obtaining access to live events streamed over the Internet is rapidly becoming a consumer expectation. But delivering live streams to tens of thousands of users, let alone millions, without buffering, delays and other technical hiccups and glitches remains a significant challenge. How are programmers, service providers, and over-the-top video players scaling up their bandwidth and underlying systems to address the consumer’s ever-increasing appetite for live streamed video?
