Bring Your Vision to StreamTV Europe

You asked for it. At the request of hundreds of sponsors, speakers, and attendees, StreamTV is expanding to Europe and launching the largest and most exciting festival for the streaming community to date.

What better way to kick things off for our inaugural year in Lisbon than with a speaker program that’s anything but ordinary? Think bold ideas, headline acts, and fresh perspectives on the future of streaming.

This won’t be just another conference program. It’s your chance to bring the vocals, visuals, and yes, the vision. Hosted, curated, and remixed by Evan Shapiro, our general session, AKA “The Grand Final,” will bring the headline acts of the industry together to face The New Normal. Here, every speaker has the chance to set the tone for what comes next in streaming.
