NEW YORK, June 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- NewBay Media, publisher of Broadcasting & Cable (B&C) and Multichannel News, has announced the launch of Next TV -- an entirely new brand focused on business opportunities in over-the-top and digital video. Next TV's launch will include an annual Next TV Guide, which will be published on July 16th, a weekly eNewsletter, which will start on August 15th, and the Annual "Next TV Summit," which will take place in San Francisco on Sept. 20th, 2012.

"Next TV will leverage the significant resources and reputation of B&C and Multichannel News, while having its own voice and point of view," says Steve Palm, President & CEO of NewBay Media. "These new offerings fulfill a commitment we have made to deliver unparalleled news, information, and resources to the entire spectrum of TV professionals."

The Next TV Guide will be inserted into the July 16th issues of both B&C and Multichannel News. It will serve as best practices and as an overview of all aspects of the ecosystem of players that provide the critical pieces for the delivery of online and mobile video.

The Next TV weekly eNewsletter will distill vital OTT and Digital Video updates and analysis. Curated by NewBay Mediaeditors, the eNewsletter will also feature summaries explaining why the top stories are important to television professionals.

"Next TV Summit" will follow the format of B&C's and Multichannel News' other popular events and feature keynote interviews and panels with the brightest minds in the industry from the most innovative companies. The event will also feature exhibitors, ad agencies, venture capitalists, apps developers, and programmers in the OTT and digital video space. Speakers will provide insights on the current state of the industry, future business models, and advice on how to overcome today's challenges in engaging audiences on new platforms.

"Innovative content deals are happening every day across new platforms, and this growth will continue in the foreseeable future," says Louis Hillelson, VP/Group Publishing Director, Broadcasting & Cable. "Media and Entertainment executives, technology companies, new platform companies, and app developers are looking for a place to learn, network, and understand the growth opportunities and challenges. 'Next TV Summit' will bring all the key players together in a one-day event in San Francisco to uncover the opportunities, while the eNewsletter and the Guide keep the conversation going all-year long."
