Prolific North has agreed to partner the Liverpool Screen School at Liverpool John Moores University to present ‘Getting the picture: opportunities in local TV’ on Wednesday 24 April, at the Liverpool Screen School.
The nationally-focussed conference is aimed at those interested in the opportunities that the now-established local TV framework offers: whether creating, commissioning or supplying content; planning, selling or buying airtime; or exploring models of collaboration and partnership for commercial or social benefit.
Over 300 attendees are expected to attend the full day free to attend event.
The conference will bring together a range of speakers from across the UK, and from a range of sectors and stakeholder groups, to explore the opportunities and the realities of the new local TV framework.
Licences for London, Leeds, Manchester, Liverpool and in other major cities have now been awarded with several of the successful bidders planning to be on air before the end of this year.
A number of the successful bidders are expected to be speaking at the conference along with major industry names working in and supplying the broadcast industry including representatives from COMUX and the TV advertising industry body thinkbox.
The full line-up of speakers will be announced within the next fortnight.
