REGISTER: SVG Australia Summit (June 1, Sydney, Aus)
Since the COVID-19 pandemic brought the world to a standstill in 2020 we have been waiting for this opportunity: a chance for the Australian sports production community to come together for an afternoon of information exchange and networking. We will celebrate the innovation that has allowed the industry to move forward in challenging times and discuss post-pandemic workflows and the future of the sports TV and OTT landscape.
Here's a look at the full event agenda (in Australian Eastern Standard Time):
