Cable Pioneers

Judging by the packed house for The Cable TV Pioneers dinner last week in Denver, there’s plenty of interest in the organization.

The event is the perfect melting pot of the old school with the new as the organization celebrates over 50 years of existence in the midst of the OTT revolution. “If you don’t really know where you’ve come from, you don’t know where you need to be,” chairwoman Susan Bitter Smith noted.
