The Australian Interactive Media Industry Association (AIMA) has been in touch with Digital Broadcast Vendor News Asia to advise us of a delegation to Korea September 4-7.

Korea is the most advanced country in Asia in offering Mobile TV content. The timing of the delegation is therefore opportune to pursue content sales and ideas.

The delegation will meet with leading Korean broadcasters, on-line and mobile TV/media companies and mobile phone network operators to explore opportunities to collaborate and deliver content for Korean audiences.

The Australian Digital Content delegation aims to establish direct links with Korean digital media companies to facilitate opportunities for Australian digital content developers in this exciting market.
