At this year’s IBC in Amsterdam, TEMS took part in one of the world’s leading media, entertainment, and technology events to showcase how data spaces can help the industry work more efficiently and collaboratively. With over 43,000 attendees and a strong focus on future-ready solutions, the event was the perfect setting to introduce our demo and spark new conversations.
The TEMS demo, featured in the Future Zone, illustrated how media organizations can securely share metadata, rights information, and content descriptors across a common environment. The scenario involved broadcasters, news agencies, and production teams working together to improve content discovery, reduce duplication, and streamline licensing. It was a tangible example of how data spaces can support everyday workflows without requiring major changes to existing systems.
For many visitors, this was their first encounter with the concept of a data space. But once they saw how it could help solve familiar challenges—like tracking usage rights or finding reusable content—the idea clicked. “This could save us hours,” said one production manager. Others appreciated how the demo respected privacy and control while still enabling collaboration.
Throughout the event, TEMS engaged with professionals from across the media value chain. The conversations were practical: how to reduce friction in content workflows, how to better understand and manage assets, and how to unlock new value from existing resources. The demo helped ground these discussions in real use cases, showing that data spaces aren’t abstract—they’re actionable.
The materials we shared, including the storytelling walkthrough and pitch deck, helped visitors understand not just the technical side of TEMS, but the broader vision: enabling media organizations to work together without giving up control. It’s about making collaboration easier, not harder.
IBC2025 felt like a moment of alignment. Not because everything is solved, but because the questions are becoming clearer—and the tools to address them are starting to take shape. TEMS is helping connect the dots between content, rights, and metadata in a way that’s secure, interoperable, and built for the real world.
We’re not here to change what media professionals do. We’re here to help them do it better, together. And from what we saw in Amsterdam, that shift is already beginning.
