Diplomutdelning (a.k.a Graduation)

Mittspalt3 It is with great pleasure and anticipation that I will travel back in Stockholm between the 14th and 17th December for my Diplomutdelning - graduation from KTH: joyful and undoubtedly glistering moments ahead at Stadshuset, even though it still remains to be seen how penguin-like I do look in the mandatory tails coat!


Anyone på stan at that time feeling to catch up? Drop me a line!

Strategic Outlooks for European High Definition and IP TV

Sony_9306ubI know you may have been wondering where I was hiding or what was behind the (very unstringent) lack of update on this blog in those last few weeks. Well, I was quite a bit busy finishing up my Master's thesis I began back in January when starting my end-of-study internship at Sony in Paris.

After those six wonderful months of discovering, investigating, getting in touch with and living (breathing?) in the European media sector, I 'm delighted to travel up to Stockholm to present and defend my work next week, on Monday June 13th at 13:00 in Kista (have a look at the official announcement posted at KTH).

What will be the topic-of-the-day, might you ask? Quite simply, I have been looking at the structural trends and disruptive innovations that are today appearing in the TV world in Europe - mainly High Definition TV (HD TV) and Internet-based TV (IP TV). What are they influence in the European "big picture" digital TV ecosystem? Can evolution patterns and emerging business models be sketched out of the profound and quicker-than-expected digital switchover we are experiencing today in Europe?

The event is public, so you are more than welcome to attend if you happen to be around (maybe lingering a couple more days in Scandinavia after the Reboot7 conference?). Oh, and expect the report and the presentation slides sometimes soon on this blog. Stay tuned!

On to 2005!

HanabiQuite calm blogging activity those past weeks, which have actually been quite an hectic period for me of moving from Stockholm and settling down back in France in Paris, where I have just started working at Sony (more on that soon). Now almost set-up, so keep a close eye around here :-)

In the meantime, I wish heartily to you all Happy New Year / Heureuse Année / Feliz año nuevo / gott nytt  år /  あけまして おめでとう ございます ! May this year bring dreams to reality and hope to success.

I'm on Gmail (at last!)

gmailI know I probably lag by a couple of months over the geekier and/or luckier out there, but I just got my Gmail account a few minutes ago (thanks Saskia!). A very googlish evening on my blog indeed...
