Where We’ll Be at NAB 2022
Over the past two years, like so many others, we’ve been eager for the opportunity to safely reunite in-person with our customers, colleagues and friends across the media and entertainment industry. We’ve been looking forward to sharing our innovative technology and we’re thrilled that the opportunity has finally presented itself at NAB 2022.
This year you can find us at booth W10113 where we’ll demonstrate how we’re empowering the streaming content era. Stop by for informative demos and to hear more on how our products are helping video providers and content owners engage their audiences, secure services and content revenue and deliver top quality video to any screen, anywhere, anytime.
Some of our demos will include our ATSC 3.0 solutions, Edge CDN, VIVID Workflows, Synamedia Clarissa, Synamedia Gravity and OTT ServiceGuard to name a few, along with others to be announced.
In addition to our main booth, you can also find us throughout the show floor alongside several of our industry partners. We’re excited for the many collaborative activities we have planned, bringing our integrated solutions into partner booths as well as speaking on panel sessions.
