The venue

The smartvillage Bogenhausen was a perfect venue for DVB World 2024. We liked it so much that we immediately rebooked for the following year! It provides a fun, friendly environment that is ideal for DVB World, an event that likes to do things differently! We love the colourful design, the flexible spaces and the young, fresh feel to the entire building.
Programme
Tuesday’s conference will focus mainly on commercial and business aspects of the future of media delivery, while the unconference agenda will be ready to take any sessions you propose! Ideas can be added to the wiki.
