Okay, with that out of the way, here are the top 12 reasons to join us for this year's SVG Summit!

#1: Learn from the experts and attend our Sports Production Sessions!

Beginning on the afternoon of Dec. 14, SVG members will take to the stage and discuss the latest in sports production technology and workflows. Top executive producers, key technology decision makers, and experts in the business of sports television will share their accomplishments in 2015 as well as plans for 2016.

#2: Be informed and attend the Keynote Conversation between MLB's Bob Bowman and ESPN's Jeremy Schaap!

Bob Bowman

ESPN's Jeremy Schaap will once again be at the center of a lively discussion with an industry newsmaker: Bob Bowman, President, Business & Media of Major League Baseball. Bowman directs revenue-generating and media-rights activities across all MLB entities while continuing to oversee MLB Advanced Media (MLBAM) and MLB Network. Be sure to join us on the morning of Dec. 15!

#3: See technology in action at more than 70 exhibits from your favorite equipment and services providers!

Let's face it. Visiting your favorite technology providers at NAB involves a lot of walking from booth to booth. That's what makes our exhibits so great: you can see the most important players without wearing out your shoes and feet.

#4: Our opening night happy hour this round is on us!

Oh and making our exhibition even better is our opening night happy hour, held in our exhibit area on Dec. 14 from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. Two solid hours of networking, appetizers, and free drinks to help you ease into your evening dinner plans.

#5: The Remote Engineering Workshop moves to a bigger room, so join us and take a seat!

The Remote Engineering Workshop has become a tradition unlike any other, giving those involved in remote-production facility design and operations a chance to come together and discuss hot topics like new approaches to truck design, the challenge of going green, and the move to IP-based operations. This year's session is moving to a bigger room to make it easier for everyone who wants to attend to take a seat and be part of the conversation.

#6: Unique venue production needs come into focus!

In an effort to serve the information, networking, and business needs of engineering, IT, and broadcast executives in sports venues, the SVG Venue Initiative will host a Venue Production Workshop. Topics will include enhancing interoperability between the venue and broadcasters, the growth of IP workflows in venues, how LED lighting is changing the way fans see the game, and the mobile-fan experience. All end users are welcome to join us for this lively afternoon of sessions on Dec. 14. Please note: Sponsors need to join the SVG Venue Initiative in order to gain access to this Workshop. For more information, contact Rob Payne (rob@sportsvideo.org) and Andrew Gabel (agabel@sportsvideo.org).

#7: SVG College: Live From New York!

The SVG College Initiative returns to the SVG Summit this year to offer informative presentations and discussions addressing the robust college sports video production industry. With major networks, conference digital networks, and athletic departments all producing more live and on-demand college sports content than ever before, a whole new industry of sports video production has emerged with its own set of unique challenges and opportunities. Join us at the SVG College: New York Workshop at the SVG Summit in New York City to network with industry peers and leaders in technology development and help take your career and your organization to the next level.

Please note: Sponsors need to join the SVG College Initiative in order to gain access to this Workshop. For more information, contact Rob Payne (rob@sportsvideo.org) and Andrew Gabel (agabel@sportsvideo.org).

#8: Keep up to date on the ever-evolving area of asset management and storage!

The Sports Asset Management & Storage (SAMS) Workshop is designed for SVG members and sponsors who would like to discuss the current state of asset management technology as it relates to near-term and long-term strategies. This year's SAMS Workshop will address a variety of topics, including computer vision tools to automate metadata assignment, the impact of big data, challenges in storing 4K/8K/HDR content, mitigating doomsday scenarios and disaster recovery, and new tiering strategies from nearline to deep archive. The workshop will also feature a pair of case studies and close with a session entitled
