Christophe Hochart Reports on the 2018 Media Innovation Forum



The 2018 Media Innovation Forum (MIF) at the ParkRoyal Singapore, was a huge success, and involved more than 10 countries, channels, broadcasters, operators, OTT players, great speakers and panels; and a very high caliber audience that was very engaged in participating in all the subjects and panels. Being this year's chair person, it was a great honour to open the event, introduce all the panels, and chair the event for the entire two day conference.

My popular business-centered opening put the spotlight on transformation and invigoration as I highlighted examples and evidence pertaining to the massive impact the huge multi-level IP disruption affecting TV and operator industries is generating. I spoke about the unique challenge and incredible chance this transformation brings, and how it empowers the industry to yield maximum revenue for each piece of content that delivers. I covered various angles, including: how to generate maximum $s by understanding the tech advances hitting the video market; how Asia can learn from current transformations; whether new entrants have any influence on the market; how a digital transformation is seen by ‘traditional’ delivery players; the way global consumers are viewing content; what the new state-of-the-art business models look like; great success stories, and their keys to winning, and tips on how the audience can bring back the magic.

During the course of the event, all the leaders got together at a closed door session to brain storm about the future of TV and media OTT – stay tuned!
