CBA Bursary to visit IBC 2011
Applicants should hold a senior position in their company and have responsibility for technical development at a policy or planning level. A visit to IBC must be of benefit to them personally in their role and their company as a whole. Only one application from a single company will be considered, so it is advantageous that companies ensure that their strongest candidate applies. In the event of multiple applicants from the same company only the first one received by the CBA will be considered.
The bursary will cover the economy return airfare to Amsterdam in the Netherlands, five nights bed and breakfast accommodation and a daily subsistence allowance. In addition the successful applicant will have access to all conference proceedings and the exhibition. Successful applicants will be expected to purchase their return air ticket locally for which they will subsequently be reimbursed by the CBA. It will be the applicants' responsibility to obtain a visa to visit the Netherlands. Letters of invitation will be provided.
IBC is a fixture on the calendar of the global media industry, attracting over 48,000 professionals and 1,300+ Exhibitors from more than 140 countries. Among them are the industry's most senior executives who choose IBC's highly respected conference to set and challenge the media agenda. The event plays host to a wide array of onsite certified training, product demonstrations, big-screen movie presentations and the prestigious IBC Awards Ceremony. Innovations such as the New Technology Campus and Connected World showcase technology at the cutting edge. With all this and more, IBC is the place to learn and lead.
IBC takes place from the 8th - 13th September 2011. Applicants should apply for a bursary by downloading the application form and returning it to Neil Dormand: neil@cba.org.uk or fax to +44 20 7583 5549.
