Interview with Martin Kull

In the run-up to Cable Congress 2013 we speak to Martin Kull, CEO of Vestacon about industry priorities for 2013 and big cable opportunities.

What big technological developments have you seen that have impacted the market in a way that would be visible to the average European consumer? The evolution of high quality and high speed access networks with Cable and Fibre in the clear lead has enabled high speed broadband and with that streaming TV-services. Together with WiFi, TV Everywhere is soon a reality.

From a technology standpoint, what are cable’s priorities for 2013? To take the early VOD deployments to embrace personalization and a true multiscreen experience.

Looking more broadly at strategy, what are some of the big opportunities that you see lie ahead for the European cable industry. Europe is still fragmented when it comes to Over-the-top services, partly due to the many different languages. I see strong opportunities for Cable operators to take the role of an OTT-aggregator - just like Cable aggregated Broadcast services in early days of TV distribution.

Tell us a little bit about the future of IPTV and what it means for the cable industry in Europe. Many operators already distribute broadcast TV and VOD services over IP in their core networks. Multiscreen and TV Everywhere are examples where IP technology grows also into into the Cable operators access networks. Eventually with CCAP and Docsis 3.1 the hybrid VOD services and TV broadcast can also effectively be distributed via IP. The migration needs to extend over the life cycle of existing STBs though.

What is your favourite personal technology? Well in summertime it is my Automower. Not sure if it is specifically personal, but it does save me lots of time.
