The first set of speaker sessions for the UK’s biggest production and media tech conference and exhibition (14-15 May 2025 at London Olympia) have been revealed

The Media Production & Technology Show (MPTS) has revealed the first speaker sessions for the conference line-up of its 2025 event.

The two-day show, which takes place 14-15 May 2025 at Olympia's Grand Hall, brings technology and creativity together under one roof.

It offers an extensive free-to-attend seminar programme covering pre-production, production, virtual production, post, distribution and audio.

There’s also a new series of sport-focused sessions in collaboration with Broadcast Sport, and a new AI Zone, featuring exhibition space and speaker sessions debating the impact of AI and generative AI on the media sector.

Highlights of the programme so far include a behind-the-scenes look at the costumes, hair and camera direction of Strictly Come Dancing; A masterclass about the post-production work on The Greatest Night in Pop which won a 2024 Broadcast Tech Innovation Award for Excellence in Grading (non-scripted); An investigation into the skills gaps in the creative industries and the role of formal education vs. industry training programmes; A state-of-the-nation panel discussing the UK studios landscape; and an In Conversation With… session with sports broadcaster and former NFL player Jason Bell.

Around 12,000 people from across the broadcast, production, post-production and content creator industries are expected to attend the event on 14-15 May 2025 at London Olympia.

Event director Charlotte Wheeler said: “We are thrilled to unveil the seminar programme for MPTS 2025, an event that continues to be the leading platform for innovation, discussion, and collaboration in the media production and technology sector. This year’s programme has been carefully curated to address the most pressing challenges and exciting opportunities facing our industry, featuring an exceptional lineup of speakers, thought leaders, and industry pioneers.

“MPTS has always been a hub for knowledge sharing, and 2025 will be no exception. Our seminars will explore cutting-edge developments in broadcast technology, production workflows, content creation, and emerging trends that are shaping the future of media. Whether you are an established professional or a new voice in the industry, our sessions are designed to inspire, inform, and spark meaningful conversations.

“We look forward to welcoming attendees from across the sector to engage with expert panels, hands-on demonstrations, and exclusive keynote talks. The conversations we foster here will help shape the next chapter of media production and technology. We can’t wait to see you at MPTS 2025.”

  • I think this year 2024 is probably the most innovative, cutting-edge, head-of-the-curve MPTS that I’ve exhibited at so far. I think even compared to last year, attendees really know what they’re looking for when it comes to cloud, AI, virtual production, all of the buzz words, all of the emerging technologies, everyone’s really embraced it.
