IBC stands for the International Broadcasting Convention, and is one of the most influential annual events for professionals engaged in the creation, management, and delivery of electronic media and entertainment content worldwide. It serves as a meeting place for professionals from various sectors within the media and entertainment industry, including broadcasting, streaming, production, post-production, distribution, technology, and more.
At the core of the event is a world-class exhibition, accompanied by a two-day paid-for conference that features keynote presentations, panel discussions, and technical papers covering a broad spectrum of topics. These discussions span emerging technologies, industry trends, regulatory matters, market insights, as well as the presentation of the Accelerator Media Innovation Programme, IBC Innovation Awards, and Social Impact Awards.
Founded in 1967 with a principle of being “by the industry, for the industry,” IBC has continuously evolved with each new trend and technology throughout its 56-year history. What began with representatives from 24 countries has now grown to attract exhibitors, speakers, and visitors from over 170 nations.
