Since 1993, the annual NAB European Radio Conference has been offering in-depth educational and training sessions for radio broadcasters in a beautiful European city. Conference attendees include the industry's key players from all over Europe and around the world. For 2008, the conference has been renamed the NAB European Conference and will now consist of three parts: the traditional NAB European Radio Conference, the NAB European Podcasting Conference, and the NAB European Post|Production Conference. The tagline of "The Changing Landscape of Audio and Video Broadcasting" reflects the spirit of evolution started last year in Barcelona to keep things alive and fresh to ensure a long and prosperous future. This year's "NAB Europe" will return to the United Kingdom and will take place at the Hilton London Metropole hotel on 26-29 October 2008.

The Radio Conference consists of sessions open to all who wish to submit a proposal, while the Podcasting and Post|Production Conferences are produced by Future Media Concepts.
