DTVE October Issue 2016

This issue of Digital TV Europe is devoted to the shortlisted entries for our Content Innovation Awards, which were held in Cannes ahead of last week’s MIPCOM programming market.

Launched last year, the annual Content Innovation Awards recognise innovation from players in all parts of the content creation and delivery chain and are run in partnership with DTVE’s sister title Television Business International (TBI).

Elsewhere in this issue, we look in detail at the phenomenon of Drone Racing – an example of a new content format that is attracting the interest of major media groups across Europe.

We also interview A+E Networks EMEA chief Dean Possenniskie about A+E’s move into the free-to-air market and the prospects for content distribution over digital platforms.
