The 2025 edition of NAB Show New York opens on Wednesday, with a wide array of offerings for attendees.
The National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) shares that more than 12,000 are registered to attend the event over the coming days.
It also shared that more than 250 exhibitors and more than 50 first-time companies are in attendance in the exhibitor hall.
“This is where stories meet strategy,” said Karen Chupka, NAB’s executive vice president of Global Connections and Events. “We’re giving attendees hands-on access to the people and platforms shaping what’s next — from AI in newsrooms to the new power dynamics of creators, sports leagues, and local broadcasters.”
According to the NAB, some of the highlights of the show include:
