> *ITU launches 2nd IPTV Application Challenge*****

> *Search for Smart Living Solutions*
>
> *Geneva, 1 June 2012* – Themed, “Better Quality of Life”, ITU’s second
> IPTV Application Challenge is inviting innovative IPTV solutions from
> individuals, small-to-medium sized enterprises (SMEs) and corporations to
> improve social welfare through services in fields such as e-health,
> e-government, e-learning, ICT accessibility and all aspects of Smart Living.
> ****
>
> The winning application in the individual/SME category will be awarded a
> cash prize of 3,000 USD. There is a separate category for corporate
> entries. Winners will be announced at the World Telecommunication
> Standardization Assembly (WTSA-12), in Dubai 20-29 November. WTSA is a
> quadrennial event gathering around 1000 representatives of the ICT
> industry’s most influential policy makers, regulators and private-sector
> enterprises. The winning and most promising applications will be showcased
> at this and many subsequent ITU events, maximizing global visibility and
> attracting investment in their development.****
>
> Hamadoun Touré, Secretary-General, ITU: “ITU’s IPTV standards are
> providing secure end-to-end solutions for broadcasters and service
> providers around the world. These application challenges are a proven
> platform to drive innovative use of the medium and tapping into the minds
> of engineers around the world. I look forward to some excellent results.”
> ****
>
> Following a very successful Challenge in 2011, the 2nd Challenge will add
> further fuel to an already vibrant IPTV market today serving over 60
> million IPTV subscribers. Supported by deployments of high-speed broadband
> networks, the industry is growing at roughly 25 per cent annually.
> Additionally, the average revenue per user is increasing, signalling a
> better monetization of IPTV services and tremendous revenue opportunities
> to the companies serving a market expected to double in size within the
> 2011-2014 timeframe.****
>
> ITU’s standardized solutions are already implemented in the IPTV global
> marketplace, and increased adoption of the standards will provide further
> stimulus to the market’s growth. The standardized platforms provided by ITU
> IPTV Recommendations are more cost-effective and flexible than proprietary
> solutions, and critically grant applications and services a global reach.*

>
> Challenge participants are required to develop applications running over,
> either:****
>
>    - Recommendation ITU-T H.761Nested context language (NCL) and
>    Ginga-NCL for IPTV services, or;****
>    - Recommendation ITU-T H.762Lightweight interactive multimedia
>    environment (LIME) for IPTV services****
>
> *Key dates:*****
