This Week at NAB

This Week at NAB – October 23, 2020

This week, we’re bringing NAB Show New York online, part of our series of virtual events that included the Radio Show and Sales and Management Television Exchange. It’s not too late to enjoy on-demand content from these events and get the insights and ideas that will help your business thrive in a challenging environment.

During his welcome remarks at NAB Show New York, NAB NAB President and CEO Gordon H. Smith noted:  

“This year more than ever, our communities look to their local broadcasters to deliver the most trusted news and emergency alerts that keep them safe, informed and connected. We have provided our communities essential and fact-based news on the pandemic, a movement to right social injustice, hurricanes, wildfires and more. And we are exercising our First Amendment rights of freedom of speech and of the press to keep the public informed and shine light on the issues that our nation and communities face.”
