Back to Festival programme

Speaker: Bob Collins, Chair BAI
Chair: Sean O Rourke, Broadcaster

As he settles into his role as inaugural Chair of the newly established and overarching Broadcasting Authority of Ireland, Bob Collins speaks publicly for the first time on the major content issues, technological changes and funding options facing the industry, both public and commercial, across the Celtic nations and regions.  
 
Will a previous life as DG of a major public service broadcaster make it easier or more difficult for him to steer a course through the choppy seas that lie ahead? 
 
Following his address, he will take questions from one of the most insightful of media commentators and from the audience.
