Grass Valley has announced the GV Forum 2025: Leading the Media Revolution, an event designed to drive discussions on the future of media technology. Taking place ahead of NAB Show 2025 on April 5th at the Renaissance Hotel Las Vegas, it will be developed and led by the GVx Leadership Council—a group of 35 executives from media organizations—. The objective of the GV Forum 2025 is to try to shape the future of media through discussions and insights, as the company has claimed in a statement.

Agenda and event breakdown

GV Forum 2025 will feature a program to address strategic business challenges and technical innovations, including:

• Industry Leadership Perspectives – To focus on global challenges and emerging trends.
• Cutting-Edge Technology – A dive into the latest advancements in system deployments, cloud-based solutions, and next-generation workflows.
• Engaging Panel Discussions – Executives and technologists will share strategies for navigating disruption and driving success.
• Networking & Collaboration – To foster connections between industry leaders.

The event is divided into two main sessions. During the morning session, focused on Business & Strategy, a market research segment will offer an in-depth analysis of industry trends and market shifts. This session will also present visionary perspectives from media leaders, alongside real-world case studies. In addition, panel discussions will provide conversations on the evolving media landscape.

In the afternoon session, dedicated to a Technical and Operational Deep Dive, customers, partners and systems integrators will showcase real-world deployments, illustrating implementations. They will lead technical panel discussions exploring trends, practices, and operational workflows in media technology. The session will also include interactive technical learning segments providing hands-on insights into hybrid cloud and on-premises deployments across the Grass Valley Media Universe, including Grass Valley’s Agile Media Processing Platform (AMPP).

“As Chairman of the GVX Council, I’m honored to be part of a group that truly represents the future of media innovation. Our council—comprised of some of the media industry’s most influential technologists and business leaders—works in concert with Grass Valley to drive solutions aligned with the evolving needs of content producers and distributors, all aimed at driving down the cost of technology stacks. The GV Forum is the ideal platform for us to share these insights and collaboratively chart a course forward in an industry defined by the need for rapid technological change while driving down the total cost of ownership for media companies”, said Del Parks, Chairman of the GVX Council.
