Public broadcasting: what’s at stake and where are we headed? (10:30am - 11:15am)Biscayne Public service broadcasters around the world have always faced challenges -- from the financial to the sociopolitical, and many points between. But recently, the issues needing navigation have become more pronounced: from governments calling for fundamental changes in funding, to rapidly shifting audience behaviors. Luckily, PSBs have a history of innovation and adaptation, and have often led the way in the evolutions -- and revolutions -- that have shaped the TV industry. Here, executives from leading public service broadcasters share their thoughts on the current climates in their territories, and strategies for future-proofing public broadcasting into the next decade. |

Primetime for podcasts (11:30am - 12:15pm)Chopin The “podcast to broadcast” phenomenon picked up speed when the true-crime podcast Serial kickstarted the hunt for IP within the pod space by networks and prodcos in 2014. But now, the market has exploded in myriad ways, with linear nets and streamers launching podcasts from their hit series while still mining successful pods (and their creators) for TV projects and deals. And producers are also cross-pollinating, creating podcast divisions and striking deals with top pod talent. This session brings together executives and creatives from all angles of the expanding podcast universe to explore the future trajectory for the medium and the business and creative opportunities within it. 30 Minutes With (11:30am - 12:00pm)Flagler No sign-up is required, seats are filled on a first-come, first-served basis until we reach room capacity.
