Welcome
The eight Annual Industry Days in Luxembourg
Welcome to the SES Industry Days 2015 in
Luxembourg. Since our conference last
year several new developments have
accelerated in our industry such as the
definition of advanced satellite payloads
offering a significantly higher throughput
per satellite, the second phase of the Ultra
HD standardization, new solutions such
as HbbTV 2.0 and Push VOD for providing
additional content offerings via satellite
to consumers and last but not least new
technology for distributing satellite
delivered content in a secure manner on
in-home IP networks.
Industry Days 2015 brings an exciting and
comprehensive conference programme
where specialists from the European
Space Agency, from the European
Broadcasting Union, from SES and from
leading equipment and chip
manufacturers will discuss and examine
these new developments.
Once again Industry Days will be more
than a conference: it is a platform to
discuss and network with far over 200
industry colleagues from all over the
world. But there is even more: please visit
the over 20 booths of our industry
partners who will exhibit their latest
products and product developments and
sound out new product solutions that
could benefit your business.
All this wouldn’t have been possible
without the contributions of our speakers,
exhibitors and the dedicated support of
the SES Industry Days team and I would
like to sincerely thank you all for your
work and commitments towards making
this event a success.
