and global distribution
[http://www.rrsat.com/global-network-map?utm_source=PR_euroconsult ] services to the
television and radio broadcasting industry, announced today that Avi Cohen, RRsat CEO,
will participate in a panel on Prospects for Content Management and Transmission Services
at the World Satellite Business Week
[http://www.satellite-business.com/program/sptvd/wednesday ] to be held in Paris on
September 11, 2013. More than 600 representatives of global satellite communications and
information businesses attend the annual meeting.



The panel is part of the Symposium on Prospects for TV Distribution, a sub-event
dedicated to the future of global TV distribution and the role of satellite networks,
which is being held for the first time this year. It provides a forum for top service
provider executives to share views on key trends in the market and on investments needed
to address broadcasters' future needs. Topics covered will include the optimization of
content delivery and the future role of satellite in the TV environment.



"The variety of video delivery platforms, formats and models for monetizing content
has increased rapidly in recent years and content management has become an essential
element of the video workflow," said Mr. Cohen. "Media and entertainment companies are
increasingly turning to broadcast service companies to oversee highly complex content
management and content preparation for multi-screen operations. This change presents media
broadcasting service providers with an outstanding opportunity to provide value-added
content preparation, playout and other content management services, but also means that
companies must be up to the task of bridging the worlds of broadcast and multi-screen
operations."



"RRsat possess the capabilities, knowledge and skill set that allow us to succeed in
the multi-platform world and to provide the sophisticated services media companies need,"
Mr. Cohen continued. "At the Symposium on Prospects for TV Distribution we will discuss
how the industry can gear up to succeed in the evolving content distribution ecosystem."
