Annual General Meeting

The 29th BVA AGM took place on Tuesday 3rd November 2009 and we were delighted that the Creative Industries Minister, Siôn Simon MP, was our keynote speaker.

The AGM with the kind support of Eyeframe, was held at the Lewis Media Centre which is based on the ground floor of Millbank Tower in the heart of Westminster.

The BVA Vice Chair, Charlie McAuley, Managing Director of Paramount Home Entertainment gave his Annual Statement and the BVA Director General, Lavinia Carey presented the Annual News Review.

Siôn Simon MP spoke on matters to include the Digital Economy Bill, faster broadband, regulation and the future of the audiovisual industry.

The Annual News Review, whilst taking note of what a challenging year it has been for the home entertainment industry also highlighted the merit of this year’s Blu-ray campaign and the BVA’s ambition to drive forward the digital agenda in 2010.
