New Product Highlights Coming to the NAB Show New York 2024

When you hear “NAB Show” the first thought that comes to mind is: “What’s New?” The show is legendary for new products, new ideas, new ways of working, and, best of all, new friends.

The NAB Show New York, though smaller, is no different. With over 250 exhibitors, there will be no shortage of “new.” New products that haven’t been shown at NAB before, or new products that haven’t been shown on the East Coast.

Over the last several days, I’ve sifted through hundreds of documents from a variety of companies describing what they are bringing to the show. While there are dozens of new products targeted at content distribution, I focused on new products for content creators, especially the individual media creator or small production company.

Here are what I consider the highlights, listed in alphabetical order and based on materials provided by each company.

NOTE: I’ll be attending the show. So, here’s a FREE registration code for the event. If you are in the area, stop by our Booth 765 and say hello!
