IABM, in association with Broadcast India 2025, is proud to confirm the region’s premier position for key growth, anchoring investment and celebrating innovation and opportunities. 

As part of IABM’s investment strategy in India, CEO, Saleha Williams, will take center stage at the Broadcast India Show 2025 delivering the keynote titled “Shaping the Global MediaTech Landscape: Trends, Data, and the Road Ahead” on Tuesday 14 October 2025 at the Jio World Convention Centre, Mumbai (12:15 – 13:00 hrs).  

The session will explore how broadcasters, streamers, and technology leaders are redefining the global content ecosystem, revealing where investment priorities are shifting and how regional markets like India are driving growth across the media technology value chain. 

India’s energy and innovation make it one of the most exciting markets for MediaTech,” said Saleha Williams, IABM CEO, “We’re seeing an increasing appetite for collaboration between Indian and international businesses – not only in technology adoption, but also in skills, partnerships, and new investment models. IABM’s expanding presence across APAC reflects our commitment to supporting this evolution and growing membership. 

In addition, Sushant Rai, IABM’s Head of Member Engagement & Growth for APAC, will present two panels, also at the Jiro World Convention Centre, showcasing IABM’s expertise and experience:

  1. Future-Ready Broadcast: Seamless Workflows from Capture to Delivery Wednesday 15 October 2025 (14:00 – 14:45 hrs).
