The International Media Connectivity Group Forum (IMCG) will be held in Boston, Mass. this fall. The forum, which is nearing it’s 39th year, is an effort of the World Broadcasting Unions (WBU), which includes broadcasters from Europe, Africa, Asia, the Arab States, North America, South America and the Caribbean.
At its inception in 1985, the WBU-IMCG forum—formerly referred to as the “International Satellite Operations Group”—was created to address the number of issues facing satellite transmission at the time, and to acknowledge the essential role that satellite distribution play in global content delivery. Today, the forum works to reflect the rapidly changing technology landscape, and be inclusive of all viable contribution and distribution solutions broadcasters use in their operations.
