From acquisition to archive Sony is delivering innovations that help customers overcome their challenges and meet their strategic goals. NAB Show is a great opportunity to both showcase our solutions, but also to meet and understand our customers evolving needs, so we can ensure we remain at the forefront of addressing them .
