2. Be inspired!
The Media Technology degree programme at the Royal Institute of Technology
(KTH, Stockholm) marks its sixth year of academic excellence. The programme
has matured from its early stages and established it´s status as the obvious
choice for creative and abitious students with a genuine interest in media tech-
nologies, their applications and uses.
Our Media-Tech Day 2005 kicks off on April 21st and we predict it will be hot-
ter than ever. This year´s event is a natural consequence of the success of the
previous two, and as always, TLG ( the Trade- and Industry Group), is placing
emphasis on a solid and attractive speaker and seminar programme. The topics
covered will be of interest for all who would like to stay updated on develop-
ments within the media technology and services industries.
Sieze this unique chance to meet established authorities, as well as future mov-
ers and shakers in the media!
The work with Media-Tech Day 2005 continues and you will be able keep track
of how it is coming along on www.medieteknik.com. We look forwad to meeting
you on April the 21st.

3. New technology- opportunities and constraints
The rapidly developing media technology continuously creates new chal-
lenges for the players in the media field. IP-TV, digital printing, 3G, e-pa-
per, peer-to-peer, WiFi, convergence—all innovations affect the competi-
tive situation and business opportunities in the media market. To ensure
the ability to reach customers and consumers in this changing world, all
enterprises and organizations involved in media communication must re-
late to or utilize new technology in conjunction
with traditional methods. And this must be done
without endangering profitability. Current knowl-
edge of new media technology, its possibilities
and restrictions, its uses end role in sociaty, is
here a key to success.
