30 January 2017

Television, cinema and multimedia are the symbols of the modern age. Exhibitions, conferences or  seminars, dedicated to them, are hold every week in any country in the world. However, the most spectacular event in this field is the International Broadcasters Congress of IBC in Amsterdam. This event includes a huge exhibition, a major scientific conference, presentations and shows for visitors, the discussions of experts, training seminars for beginners, a press conference for journalists, film festivals, parties and banquets for participants

Membership in the Program Committee of the Conference is possible only by personal invitation, and only to the leading scientists in the field of cinema, television and broadcasting. Head of International Relations Office and Professor of Television Konstantin Glasman received an invitation to become a member of the IBC Program Committee for the eleventh time in January 2017.

Konstantin briefed about the conference and reminded that our students also regularly take part in it.

In 2016, the conference and the IBC exhibition involved more than 55 thousand participants from 170 countries. The popularity of the event is largely due to the high scientific level of the reports and the general theme. In recent years, all conference activities are grouped within the framework of the three main streams: "Technical advances (technology)", "Business in the media industry (business)", " Creation of content and Innovation (Creativity)."

It is noteworthy that the education provided by our university implying the convergence of creative, technical and economic research in the areas of the media sphere, corresponds to the world scientific trends. That's why St.Petersburg State University of Film and Television has already received «call for IBC2017» and this year high school students will be back at the Congress in Amsterdam.
