The Content Delivery & Security Association (CDSA) and its members are preparing for the annual NAB Show in Las Vegas, with a full slate of events on the calendar.
The CDSA Summit returns to West Hall in the Las Vegas Convention Center on April 5 for an afternoon of sessions on content protection, artificial intelligence, and the emerging creator economy.
The annual, in-person Summit is the forum for all “do-ers” across the global entertainment supply chain.
This year’s Summit theme — “Global M&E Business: Opportunity Everywhere … Almost” — will examine the vast potential in the media and entertainment (M&E) industry while acknowledging certain challenges impacting the business’s future. While speakers will dig into the key growth areas, such as digital content, streaming services, and emerging technologies, they will also address obstacles like market saturation, regulatory issues, and evolving consumer preferences.
Here’s a look at some of the topics that will be discussed:
• “A Tsunami of Change in Global Media & Entertainment”
• “Some of My Best Friends are AI!”
• “Supercharged Hardware: A Flux Capacitor for Creators”
• “Deep Fakes Unmasked: Is Your Zoom Call a Lie?”
• “AI in the Workplace: The Reality of an Automated Future”
• “Exploring the Brazilian Experience in Combating Audiovisual Piracy”
• “The Sport of Protecting Live Streaming”
• “Enterprise Video: Your Creatives Need Platforms!”
• “Identity Crisis: Building Trust through Federation”
• “Watermarking: What’s the Business Value?”
The CDSA Summit is sponsored by AMD, IP House, Vimeo, and EIDR.
