NAB Launches NAB Express
Washington, D.C., March 20, 2020--The National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) has decided not to hold the NAB show this year and instead announced the launched of NAB Show Express to launch in April 2020. This digital experience will provide a conduit for exhibitors to share product information, announcements and demos, as well as deliver educational content from the original selection of programming slated for the live show in Las Vegas, and create opportunities for the community to interact virtually.
NAB CEO Gordon Smith said in a statement: " We wil proceed with a two-pronged approach to deliver as much value as possible under these circumstances to our exhibitors, partners, and the broadcast industry as a whole. First, we are exploring a number of ways to bring the industry together online, both in the short and long term. We know from many years of serving the community with face-to-face events, that connectivity is vital to the health and success of the industry. That’s why we are excited to announce NAB Show Express, targeted to launch in April 2020."
"Second, we will be enhancing NAB Show New York with new programs, partners, and experiences. We have already had numerous conversations with show partners about expanding their participation, and have heard from numerous exhibitors interested in enhancing their presence at this fall’s show. NAB Show New York represents the best opportunity for companies to announce and showcase their latest innovations and comes at a perfect time for the industry to gather face-to-face to restart, refocus, and reengage as we move forward together," he added.
The NAB Show New York is scheduled for October 16-17, 2020 at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center, New York City. For more information go to: https://www.nabshowny.com/
