DISCOP 07

Paris, 24 January. 2007 will be one of the most eventful year ever for Central & Eastern Europe’s booming television industry as most countries are pushing hard on the transition from analogue to digital broadcasting while at the same time many of them are already embracing IPTV.

As a result, close to 650 national, regional, thematic TV stations, VOD, Telco operators and DVD distributors from Central & Eastern Europe are expected to send about 1000 programming, acquisitions, production and distribution executives to Budapest for the 15th edition of the annual 3-day DISCOP content market which will take place from 20 to 22 June at the SOFITEL ATRIUM HOTEL in Budapest.

To better welcome an expected 25% increase in attendance over 2006, the market will be held during 3 weekdays (Wednesday, Thursday and Friday) instead of 2 weekdays plus a Saturday as in the past.

With still 5 months to go before DISCOP 07, all exhibits have already been sold out to 173 international TV content sales organizations, the vast majority of them being DISCOP veteran companies eager to pre-organize their meetings with the +/- 700 already confirmed Central & Eastern European TV content BUYERS.

Many additional non-exhibiting sales organizations are still expected to register while an increased number of national pavilions will also be at DISCOP 07 representing France, Italy, Spain, Korea and Israel.
