Meeting Consolidation

Cable associations, NCTA and NCTA board members held a conference call Mon to once again address how to consolidate the industry’s various events around 2 weeks—one in the fall and one in the spring during the Cable Show. Attendees feel they are “moving closer to something resembling more of a proposal,” but more discussion is needed, an NCTA spokesman said. This was the 1st meeting since the initial gathering in NY Oct 22 (Cfax, 10/23). The group is beginning to kick around ideas of how to move some events around those 2 clusters, he said.
