IOV Annual Convention & Trade Exhibition

Now in its third year at Stoneleigh Park, near Coventry, the Institute of Videography is has announced that registration is now open for its Annual Convention and Trade Exhibition on October 18 & 19 2006.
Due to popular demand, the event has moved from its April timeslot and will now be held in October, making it the 'grand finale' video event of the industry's calendar year. Being only a few weeks after the conclusion of IBC in Amsterdam, IOV2006 will also represent the first UK showing of the very latest technology aimed at the European video professional.
Situated just outside Coventry, Stoneleigh Park is probably best known for hosting the UK's leading outdoor events, including the Royal Agricultural Show and offers over 10,000 square metres of purpose-built indoor exhibition facilities that rival any major exhibition venue within Europe. Hall 1, being roughly three times the floor space the IOV occupied at its previous venue, has helped to accommodate the rapid growth of this event.
Aimed primarily at the professional videographer, the IOV Convention also has a growing following amongst serious filmmakers and independent producers who strive to produce video to a professional standard. The seminar programme spanning the two days is geared towards the professional - and ranges from technical 'How to' type presentations through to sessions with expert panels.
This year there is a 150-seat seminar theatre dedicated to wedding videography, which is one of the fastest growing sectors with ever-increasing profit margins.
With literally hundreds of manufacturers being represented, visitors can see, try and buy all the latest professional video technology. From simple cables and connectors, through to entire production studios, or even a year's worth of tape and media stock!
Regular visitors make the IOV Convention their main purchasing event, and exhibitors respond by providing many special exhibition offers.
