Adam Curwin, Executive Director @ Greening of Streaming The last year has seen a step change in how the world is consuming Streamed content – whether entertainment at home or replacing business travel. Current estimates suggest that streaming is producing as much carbon as air travel and the public will soon become focussed on the impact that streaming is having on the environment. Greening of Streaming and its Members are proactively challenging themselves to develop and share best practices and communicate what we are doing about it to the world. This presentation explains what our Members want to achieve, what we are doing and how we are going about it.

Mike Gordon, CEO @ DLVR Legislation is being established to ensure that content and infrastructure services are continuous. Will this lead to a regulation of the CDN market and in turn force CDNs to work together or should this collaboration be taken in hand by the CDN industry itself?

An interview with Mike Gordon (CEO DLVR) on why CDNs need to work together to avoid this enforced legislation and how this ultimately leads to a better experience for the end user.
