Looking forward to treking over to Cannes next week via LA and UK. I remember when Milia was a short hop from home (London) now it is a heave to the other side of the planet but the seminar line-up alone (see extensive list below) makes it worth it alone.
MIPTV featuring MILIA is the world’s premier audiovisual & digital content market. It’s where the key decision-makers come to meet, talk and forge the business partnerships that will drive future growth on a global level. MIPTV and MILIA 2005
Participants 12,152
Companies 4,064
Countries represented 99
Exhibiting companies 1,510
Total exhibition space 18,357 m2
I remember the Milia’s of olde 96-02 – CD Roms, simple console games and very early crude interactive TV. Now there is a maturity to it, growing up alongside MIP and the focus on 360, cross-media and content makes it unique – the IBC‘s and NAB‘s still relegate mobile and broadband TV type services to side-halls and the other conferences tend to be a single platform at a time. Anyway here is the list which must make it the premier cross-media entertainment conference (industry perspective of course) – I have done this partly so I can refer to a simple running order in an emergency, as the ones on the site (MipTV feat Milia) are not so hot (one day at a time) – especially for an emerging media conference 😉
