Haim Saban, Chairman of Univision Communications Inc., founder of Saban Capital Group and the Saban Center for Middle East Policy at the Brookings Institution, will headline the Opening Event at the 2014 NAB Show, the world's leading convention for professionals who create, manage and distribute entertainment across all media platforms. The question-and-answer session, led by NAB President and CEO Gordon Smith, will take place Monday, April 7 in Las Vegas following Smith's "State of the Broadcast Industry" address. The Opening Event is sponsored by Blackmagic Design.

WASHINGTON -- The argument that broadcast television stations received spectrum licenses "for free" is grossly misleading, said a new study by Navigant Economics Managing Director and Principal Jeffrey Eisenach released today. The study found nearly all TV station owners paid market value for their spectrum licenses through private transactions, and noted other spectrum holders including wireless carriers and satellite television providers DIRECTV and DISH Network received spectrum licenses without compensating the government.

NAB Show organizers announced today a new strategic partnership with the Brazilian Society of Television Engineering (SET) to collaborate on the "SET EXPO," SET's annual conference and trade show, held in Brazil. SET EXPO, sponsored by SET for over 20 years, is the largest and most significant convention for broadcast and digital media professionals in Latin America, attracting more than 10,000 attendees. The 2014 SET EXPO will be held August 24-27 in São Paulo.
