Meet The Commissioner

Our hugely successful Meet The Commissioner series of events give companies and individuals working in the bradcast industry in the region the opportunity to meet with commissioners face to face, to start building a relationship with the channel and to ask questions on a one-to-one basis. Typically, areas covered include the commissioner's vision for their channel, the submission process and opportunities for specific slots.
