More than 15,000 participants and 200 companies participated in the exhibition.
PlayBox Neo has reported a resoundingly successful Future of Media Exhibition (FOMEX) held at the Arena Riyadh in the Saudi Arabian capital from Monday, February 19, through Wednesday, February 21. Drawing over 15,000 attendees and featuring 200 exhibiting companies alongside an enriching conference programme, FOMEX provided television content creators, postproduction specialists, and broadcasters with an immersive experience showcasing the latest trends in equipment, software, and services.
Speaking about the event, Detelin Georgiev, Regional Sales Manager for the Middle East and CIS, said: “We experienced good visitor traffic from throughout the MENA region with strong interest in our coordinated range of broadcast channel branding, management and playout solutions on all three days of the show. Media creatives, station managers and network executives in and around Saudi Arabia face the same challenges as their professional colleagues throughout the world: how to ensure maximum operational flexibility, reliability, interoperability and, above all, profitability. The modular structure of PlayBox Neo products and services allows channel management systems to be tailored to match the demands of today’s media marketplace while retaining the freedom to accommodate changes in workflow quickly and economically.”
Nikolay Spasov, Head of Technical Department, added: “We demonstrated the ease with which PlayBox Neo can be installed and operated at any desired scale from a single playout server up to full multi-channel broadcast centres. The key message we emphasize at all trade shows is the ability to handle every aspect of the channel management routine within a single PlayBox Neo system: from live production right through to on-air transmission or online streaming.”
Detelin Georgiev concluded: “An additional strength of PlayBox Neo systems is the ease with which they can be integrated with existing SDI and IP infrastructure, onsite, remote, pre-scheduled, hands-on or in combination. Refined over nearly a quarter century, our solutions have achieved global pre-eminence. Shows like FOMEX continue to provide valuable opportunities to discuss future requirements with potential and existing customers, maintaining the innovative spirit which has sustained PlayBox Neo as the industry-preferred partner for broadcast media management automation.”
