FAB annual convention

We had a fantastic 2025 FAB Annual Convention at The Breakers in Palm Beach that brought together Florida's broadcasting leaders for two days of innovation, policy insights, and industry celebration.

Highlights included Jack Abernethy's keynote on local news resilience, groundbreaking sessions on NextGen TV and connected car technology, critical regulatory updates from Washington, and Kevin Guthrie's powerful message on emergency communications partnership. The event culminated with the Hall of Fame Gala, honoring four broadcasting legends: Claudia Puig, E.R. Bert Medina, Linda Byrd, and Steven H. Pontius.

Attendees left equipped with actionable strategies for navigating broadcasting's evolving landscape  — thank you to everyone who joined us for such a memorable event!
