What broadcast and film does

Broadcast & Film is a B2B trade media publication serving the broadcast, film, and entertainment technology industries. Established as a print publication in 1991 and subsequently transitioned to digital, the title is operated by NürnbergMesse India Pvt. Ltd., the Indian arm of the global NürnbergMesse exhibition conglomerate, with editorial and commercial offices in Andheri East, Mumbai. The platform serves approximately 13,000 dedicated trade readers from the television, film, and entertainment industry globally. Its audience base spans broadcast technology professionals, production specialists, OTT/streaming operators, and the advertiser ecosystem of media technology vendors seeking targeted industry visibility.

The core product is the online publication at broadcastandfilm.com, organized into News, Features, and Digital Editions sections, complemented by two annual industry conferences and a video podcast series. The underlying technology combines a proprietary web content management system with FlipHTML5 hosting for interactive digital magazine editions spanning 2020-2026, and YouTube playlists for podcast and conference session video distribution. Editorial coverage spans emerging broadcast technologies (AI-led storytelling, cloud-based workflows, IP technology), sports broadcasting (JioStar/JioHotstar, Eurovision), OTT streaming integrations (Prime Video, MX Player), and production workflows from vendors such as Ross Video, Vizrt, AJA, and Sony. The publication hosts the Broadcast India Conference and the Content India Conference as annual in-person events.

Revenue is generated from three streams: advertising and sponsorship placements across the website and digital editions; event sponsorship packages, booth rentals, and attendee fees from the two conferences; and gated digital edition access requiring first-name, last-name, and email registration for lead generation. The title holds exclusive status as the official media partner of the Broadcast India Show since its inception, and maintains media partnerships with IBC and Adobe (for the A.B.I.S Knowledge Podcast Series). The NürnbergMesse parent provides exhibition infrastructure and operational leverage, while the editorial team operates within a stated 11-50 employee band.
