Jim O'Neil, Research Analyst, Parks Associates is moderating the breakfast panel session at Multi-network Forum at NAB.

Consumer awareness of multi-screen potential has grown rapidly with the proliferation of OTT services from global players such as Netflix. This awareness is creating demand for seamless access to content both inside and outside the home, independent of the device type, and impervious to geographical borders.

They want, and expect, to view content on any device, engage with friends through social apps, and search an interactive program guide—all without a frustrating authentication process. Engagement and its measurement across devices is the new TV currency. Creating and operating these new distribution methods is, however, no easy task, even for the most innovative operator.

Join us for a complimentary breakfast at the Multi-network Solutions in the Real World Forum at NAB to hear how operators are building their brands around consistent, high-quality user experience across devices to attract and retain engaged and loyal subscribers.
