THE BEST OF BRITISH BROADCAST TECHNOLOGY AT NAB SHOW 2022

Celebrating the return of face-to-face meetings at the largest global gathering of the broadcast and media industry, 14 UK companies are collaborating in the UK trade delegation at NAB Show 2022 (24 – 27 April, Las Vegas Convention Centre) and either exhibiting on the UK Pavilion (located in the North Hall – N1932B) or on nearby booths.

The 14 UK businesses represent the best of technology from right across the electronic media field. Covatic focuses on the ethical balance between personalising digital services and respecting and protecting privacy. Hitomi presents a modern, foolproof take on the age-old problem of synchronisation between video and audio. And Open Broadcast Systems offers cutting-edge encoding and decoding to deliver premium content over IP with better quality and reduced costs.

GB Labs is already a global leader in intelligent media storage, providing video servers and cloud services for facilities worldwide. The founders of Coralbay.tv have worked for market leaders in playout automation for more than three decades and now offer the most advanced, cloud-native solutions on the market.

Dizplai – formerly known as Never.no – uses cloud data display techniques to deliver an interactive viewing experience. Starfish Technologies delivers highly cost-effective and operationally efficient transport stream processing, such as for advertising insertion and localisation. Tellyo is a complete cloud production platform, including editing, streaming and distribution.

“There is a huge build-up of excitement around NAB this year, because of course we lost the previous two editions,” said Mark Birchall, managing director of Tradefair. “The British companies on our programme have all been working hard over the past two years finding new ways of working with their customers as well as creating innovative new products. We help them by taking on the administration and practicalities of attending NAB and presenting themselves on the world stage.”

The UK Pavilion at NAB is managed by Tradefair, who provides the practical organisation for the venture, including logistics and managing the pavilion. The result is that the companies in the mission can concentrate on their products and building contacts, without worrying about the practicalities of building a stand.
