The Media and Entertainment Is BACK on home turf 👊

Bristol Media and Entertainment Mixer presents: Greenlight – Streaming Smarter, Not Harder

The streaming industry is booming - but at what cost?

Greenlight brings together technologists, creatives, and sustainability champions to challenge the status quo and shine a light on smarter, more conscious ways of building and consuming content.

Expect honest conversations, sharp debate, and real solutions from those shaping the future of media and entertainment.

Panel 1: Greener Screens – Do we really need 4K to watch Bake Off?

As the media industry scrambles to clean up its carbon footprint, some uncomfortable questions are bubbling to the surface, while others get buried under corporate spin.
Is the cloud really cleaner than on-prem—or just someone else’s emissions problem? Should we still be pushing 4K when HD will do? Is streaming actually less sustainable than broadcast?

This session cuts through the ESG noise and gets to the heart of what matters, with audience interaction actively encouraged.

Panelists:
Lisa Collins - The Hive Group
Matt Stagg - MTech
Dom Robinson - Greening of Streaming

Panel 2: Smart TV/Connected TV – Framework Face-Off

By 2030, a fragmented 4.2 billion smart and connected TVs will be vying for attention—but beneath the growth lies a messy landscape of regional rifts, hardware churn, and fading form factors.

Join us as platform pioneers and tech heads debate what it really takes to build scalable, sustainable, and future-ready TV experiences. From Lightning to React Native, and React to Flutter (and more), everyone’s got options - but which ones actually deliver?

Panelists:
Stuart Huke - 24i
Adam Nightingale - 3SS
Mila Dordevic - Shindiri Studios
