It all begins with one of our largest and longest-running events, the SVG College Summit on May 29-31 in Atlanta at the Omni Hotel at CNN Center. In June, SVG heads to Denver for The RSN Summit (June 24-25 at the Grand Hyatt Denver) and then Little Caesars Arena in Detroit for the SVG Venue Summit (June 26-27). July brings a pair of back-to-back events to New York City with the Sports Content Management Forum on July 24 (at the Westin New York at Times Square) and the SVG Sports OTT Forum on July 25 (at NYIT Auditorium on Broadway). Finally, SVG heads to Miami in August for the IP Production Forum at the new state-of-the-art Telemundo Center on Aug. 20 and first-annual SVG Soccer Summit: Americas at Mediapro US on Aug. 21.
May 29-31: SVG College Summit, Omni Hotel at CNN Center, Atlanta Back-to-school means planning, so here's another date and opportunity to put in your calendar and discuss with your boss.

In addition, the SVG/NACDA College Sports Media Awards will once again recognize the best in college sports video production, honoring the outstanding work in college sports video productions from campuses across the country and the staff that makes them possible.
The SVG College Summit is the leading, annual conference of college sports communicators and creatives, providing training, education, and ROI case studies about production, distribution, and fan engagement. SVGW also returns to the SVG College Summit in Atlanta with an opportunity for women attending the Summit to network and learn from one another prior to the show on May 29 at 4 p.m. ET. A total of 600 college sports broadcasters, digital producers, information officers, and campus technologists will attend every year, representing 150 different schools and every major college sports broadcaster.

This Summit provides a gathering place for networking and the exchange of ideas about the pertinent issues facing RSN leaders. As the regional-sports industry undergoes seismic change on multiple fronts, RSNs are facing a unique set of challenges and opportunities.
