Programme
The event opens on 12 November with our conference day, featuring keynotes, presentations, panels and roundtables prepared by the HbbTV Marketing and Education Working Group (MEWG) on the basis of the Call for Speakers and the topics of interest to our community. The speakers include high-level executives and industry experts from across the HbbTV community and the wider TV market. Zero effort, relax and enjoy it!
The unconference on the second day will provide an opportunity to explore the topics from the previous day in more depth or to consider other questions and challenges in sessions proposed and hosted by the conference participants. Be prepared, we need your engagement and input!
The speaking slots on our conference day are 15 minutes long – our presenters will speak for 8-10 minutes each, leaving time for questions and comments from the floor. As in past years, we will use the Slido app to gather questions, or you can simply raise your hand!
