NAB Show 2024 - Concluded highlighting the weight of AI and the monetization challenge

With a focus on AI and monetization, NAB Show 2024 concluded. Exhibitions showcasing innovations in AI were abundant, highlighting various use cases such as data analytics and video editing, among others.

In light of this situation, there was a proliferation of solutions for remote production, aimed at minimizing the need for on-site equipment and personnel, as well as cross-platform advertising sales to generate revenue for the new platforms.
