Tech Timewarp: Reflecting on the past and facing towards the future of production and distribution

The IET is hosting a future-facing forum that examines emerging trends straight from those at the forefront of technological change, nurturing conversations for the next century of broadcast, as well as reflecting and appreciating its rich history.

Join us for an open discussion with engineers and technical leads from a diverse range of organizations as we explore the evolution of technology in broadcasting over the past 20 years. This milestone period marks a time of unprecedented change—arguably the fastest, most agile, and globally collaborative era in the entire 100-year history of broadcast.

This session brings together voices from across the industry to reflect on key transitions, share insights, and celebrate the collective innovation that has shaped the modern broadcasting industry. So, whether you're a seasoned professional or an emerging talent, this is a valuable moment to connect, learn, and shape the future of our industry together.
