D2M for Bharat - 5G Broadcast Summit Set to Redefine Mobile Broadcasting Landscape
Driving India's Techade-D2M for Bharat - 5G Broadcast Summit
will be organized by IIT Kanpur and Saankhya Labs on 16th January 2023 (Tuesday) at India Habitat Centre, New
Delhi. The summit aims to deliberate on concrete actions in promoting
Direct-to-Mobile (D2M) broadcasting as a major disruption in the mobile
broadcasting space. This groundbreaking indigenous technology is aligned with
the Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s vision of making ‘Aatmanirbhar
Bharat’ and ‘Make in India’ successful in driving India’s Technology landscape.
The summit will feature prominent civil servants like Shri
Amitabh Kant (IAS) - Sherpa G20 and former CEO, NITI Aayog, Shri Tarun Kapoor
(IAS) - Advisor, PMO, Shri Apurva Chandra (IAS) - Secretary, Information &
Broadcasting, GoI, Shri S. Krishnan, (IAS) - Secretary, Ministry of Electronics
and Information Technology, GoI, Shri Neeraj Mittal (IAS) - Secretary,
Department of Telecommunications, GoI and Prof. Abhay Karandikar - Secretary,
Department of Science and Technology, GoI. Apart from the civil servants,
policy experts and industry representatives from the broadcasting and telecom
sectors will also be present.
Delegates will have invaluable opportunity to gain firsthand
insights from policy experts and civil servants on India's technology
landscape, on how D2M technology has emerged as a symbol of the power of
Aatmanirbhar Bharat, learn about the opportunities and challenges of D2M, and
other critical conversations in the Broadcasting and Telecommunication sector.
The summit presents an elaborate understanding of
Direct-to-Mobile (D2M) broadcasting technology. Recognizing its potential to
revolutionize mobile broadcasting, the summit emphasizes its seamless
integration with broadband and 5G, offering a one-to-many content delivery
system to over a billion mobile devices.
The D2M broadcasting technology developed by Saankhya Labs
and IIT Kanpur leverages terrestrial telecommunications infrastructure and
public broadcaster-assigned spectrum to transmit video, audio, and data signals
directly to compatible mobile and smart devices. With the potential to reach
over a billion mobile devices, the adoption of D2M technology promises
transformative benefits. These include cost reductions in data transmission and
access, improvements in network efficiency and resilience, and potentially
leading to the establishment of a nationwide emergency alert system.
