Washington, DC - For 2011, NAB has announced "NAB Show Virtual View" the first virtual extension of the annual NAB Show held in Las Vegas, NV. Set to launch live online May 12, the event will feature keynote content, virtual exhibit booths, exhibitor demonstrations, interviews, and live interactive video chats with industry experts on subjects that emerge from the NAB Show in April.
"We believe virtual technology is at a point where we can deliver a high-quality online experience for our attendees, speakers, and the exhibitors," said NAB Executive Vice President, Conventions and Business Operations, Chris Brown. "We plan to take advantage of advancements that allow for better integration of video and social media tools, which should translate into a much more interactive and valuable experience for our show community."
NAB Show Virtual View, NAB's first official online forum, was designed to facilitate dialogue and the exchange of new ideas regarding the latest developments coming out of NAB 2011 and their impact on the content business community. The event will include:
• Video showcases from participating companies, as well as the ability to download collateral materials such as white papers, brochures, product/services information, and case studies.
