8th Annual AGB WorkShop Bürgenstock Hotels, Switzerland 15th – 17th September ‘03

Every year for the past 7 years, AGB Media Services has organised an annual WorkShop dedicated 100% to Television Audience Measurement. In the past, this yearly event originally provided an opportunity for the key AGB Group decision makers to come together, to update themselves on the latest developments within the AGB proprietary TAM system.

Continual international growth, increased local experience & a proprietary TAM system to see the AGB Group well into the 21st Century has changed the focus of this annual event.

The WorkShop today brings together the key decision makers within the AGB Group, their guests and individuals interested in TAM data provision or analysis. They have the opportunity to share ideas and experiences & to update themselves on the latest television audience measurement developments.
