‘SVG Virtual Series’ Looks to Fill Information, Networking Need During Time of Crisis

Sports Video Group’s events will be making the move to virtual operations as the association and its leadership look to fulfill our mission of information exchange, learning, and networking, as live sports production leaders look to safely, resume operations in the weeks and months ahead.

The first episode in this expansive, new series begins today with the SVG Chairman’s Technology in Action Series (as always, open to members, Platinum, and Event Sponsors only) which replicates one of SVG’s most popular yearly events. Future virtual series offerings will cover Esports, At Home Production, College Sports, Venue Operations, and Audio (full schedule below).

“Our new, virtual event calendar provides our members and sponsors with content designed to increase communications and collaboration during this critical period,” says Ken Kerschbaumer, SVG, editorial services director. “Informative interviews, panel discussions, cases studies, and even networking via dedicated LinkedIn Groups for each event will bring together sports production professionals from around the globe.”

A total of 18 individual virtual events, each targeted at a specific membership sector, have been planned in mid-April through mid-July, beginning with four weekly installments of the association’s hallmark event, the SVG Chairman’s Technology in Action Series.
