SBCA, SkyTRENDS Schedule Half-day SkyFORUM

Communications Today, Nov 15, 2001

The Satellite Broadcasting and Communications Association (SBCA) and its SkyTRENDS partners Tuesday announced it would hold a condensed SkyFORUM satellite/financial symposium at the 2002 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas.

The half-day conference, focusing on satellite TV issues, will be held Jan. 9, 2002, between 1:00 p.m. and 4 p.m. A full-day conference originally was scheduled for New York this fall but was postponed after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

EchoStar Communications Corp's [DISH] pending purchase of Hughes Electronics [GMH] and its DirecTV Inc. unit will be featured at the event. A DBS CEO roundtable will include: Eddy Hartenstein, chairman and CEO, DirecTV; and Mark Pagon, chairman, president and CEO, Pegasus Communications Corp. >TK Sirius Satellite Radio [SIRI]:
