Cocktails at IBC 2015

Well its’ that time of year again - Apple makes it’s latest iPhone release, the kids go back to school, and everyone converges on Amsterdam for IBC.

Amsterdam has to be one of the prettiest cities to visit for a conference, and while I’m sure some of you book extra days to experience it as it should be, there are others who only have time for a quick smash and grab— that’s me. Between the RAI Conference Centre and dinner with clients, I for one unfortunately become more familiar with my hotel than places that offer cultural or historic experience.

However, if one travels to this show, it’s key to spend time with the people you work with in this industry—or hope to. So, with all the goings on, once again, I thought it valuable to provide you with one of the most important ‘to do’ lists (in addition to our “Who to See at IBC” list) boasting free networking with other online video professionals like you. Welcome to the 2015 Exhibitor Cocktail Party List. While this too, is a smash and grab list, there’s no doubt you’ll see familiar faces at these events, and if you take the time, you’ll meet new ones too. I hope to see you at one of these.

These events do NOT require registration (some offered as optional), and are not limited invitation events, nor closed for invitation. These companies made StreamingMedia aware of their free to attend cocktail event by email and was not a paid for inclusion list.
