Sports OTT Forum 2020: Speakers announced for panel on taking OTT forward into a post-lockdown world

SVG Europe has announced the speakers appearing on the Sports OTT Forum 2020 panel titled ‘Taking OTT Forward into a Post-Lockdown World.’

The use of OTT has come into its own since COVID-19 locked down the world and live sport ceased. This session will look at how this enthusiastic application of OTT has highlighted its challenges, helped technological evolution – ahead to where it will sit alongside linear TV and live sports later this year, and how it has and will continue to impact on the future of live sports broadcasting.
