An Exclusive Industry Leadership Event Ahead of NAB 2026

The industry’s senior decision-makers come together.

GV Forum at NAB 2026 is an invitation-only leadership event designed for executives shaping the future of broadcast and media production. Hosted by Grass Valley, the forum delivers insight, perspective, and clarity on where the industry is heading - and how to stay ahead of it.

This is not another conference session. It’s a focused environment where the biggest media brands, technology leaders, and strategic partners share real-world experience, market intelligence, and practical direction before NAB officially begins.
