IBC Showcase Day 2

Managing costs, complexity, and risk in the media and entertainment ecosystem

With Covid-19 threatening the continuation of existing business models and accelerating the need for both business and digital transformation, broadcasters are increasingly looking to outsource discrete elements of the broadcast workflow. With the aim of managing complexity and controlling risk while reducing costs, the increasing flexibility and agility that outsourcing represents makes a compelling argument, but what factors contribute to its success? This Red Bee Media panel will examine the efficiencies that can be realised with this process, the issues that need to be considered, and provide high-level strategic insight into the benefits that can result.

The New World of Sports Media

The return of live sports to broadcasting provides a critical opportunity to re-evaluate the business. This Red Bee Media panel will ask what sports broadcasters’ and sports rights owners’ main priorities are as they deal with the financial fallout of Covid-19. How do they evaluate insource vs outsource requirements? How has fan engagement changed when building and nurturing audiences in the new normal? What new ways are there to monetize audiences and what is changing in the sports production workflow? This panel will help chart the roadmap to the new era of televised sport.
