The emergence of IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) as an industry in its own right has given rise to conferences and exhibitions for professionals in the industry. Rather than being included as an offshoot in more wide-ranging events, IPTV events now tackle the specific challenges and opportunities of IPTV deployment in various regions, as the number of IPTV services made available continues to increase.
These events include IPTV World Forum Eastern Europe, part of the IPTV World Series, which offers telecoms companies, technology vendors and broadcasters the opportunity to meet and plan expansion of the global IPTV market. The second annual event will be held in Prague in May 2007.

“God hid the whole world in thy heart.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“That age will be rich indeed when those relics which we call Classics, and the still older and more than classic but even less known Scriptures of the nations, shall have still further accumulated, when the Vaticans shall be filled with Vedas and Zendavestas and Bibles, with Homers and Dantes and Shakespeares, and all the centuries to come shall have successively deposited their trophies in the forum of the world. By such a pile we may hope to scale heaven at last.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I open with a clock striking, to beget an awful attention in the audience—it also marks the time, which is four o’clock in the morning, and saves a description of the rising sun, and a great deal about gilding the eastern hemisphere.”
—Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816)
“We go to Europe to be Americanized.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
