NewBay Media has set the third annual NYC Television Week for Oct. 20-22.
The conclave, drawing top executives and thought-leaders from around the TV industry, will be held at the Waldorf Astoria and Park Central.
Featuring the 25th annual Broadcasting & Cable Hall of Fame and the second Content Show, as well as best-of-industry conferences such as the Hispanic Television Summit, Advanced Advertising and Next TV Summit, NYC Television Week offers education, information, and unparalleled networking for leaders in broadcast, cable, advertising, and technology companies serving the industry.
NYC Television Week is presented by Multichannel News, Broadcasting & Cable, Next TV and Ratings Intelligence.
“Held right after the launch of the new fall season, NYC Television Week is the place for the industry to gather and discuss what’s been working, what hasn’t, and where we go from here,” said Louis Hillelson, vice president/group publisher, NewBay Media. “No other event provides this many top-level television thought-leaders in one location.”
