The IIC-China 2010 Spring Edition places the spotlight on Next Generation
Broadcasting (NGB), the China Government’s initiative to integrate all local
cable TV networks into one nationwide network.
An initial network covering major cities is expected to be completed
within three years, while construction of a broader national network is slated
for completion in 10 years. NGB aims to promote its concepts and the
development of the NGB Alliance at IIC-China and to attract companies to help
build a more complete network ecosystem. NGB is expected to represent a large
market for semiconductors and components over the next few years.
Other key industry organizations supporting the IIC-China 2010 Spring
Edition include Shanghai Integrated Circuit Industry Association (SICA),
Tianjin Economic-Technological Development Area and Korea Semiconductor
Industry Association.
IIC-China is also scheduled to host its first ever CEO Forum in
