The event, held on Sunday, April 23, began with a conference given by the company’s Marketing Director, Jordi Capdevila, to present the current state of the broadcast industry and its evolution throughout the last year.
Among others, Capdevila highlighted as the main trends that will lead the sector the inevitable decrease in production costs, as well as an increasing content customization and multi-device delivery where and when consumers want. Moreover, broadcasters should also pay special attention to ensure always personal data protection, as well as continuous development of technology thanks to new innovations such as artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Later, Aaron López, COO of VSN, was in charge of explaining the latest innovations and product developments in which the company has been working lately, as well as all the key products that will be displayed at the NAB Show this year.
