HBO Chief to Keynote SkyFORUM

Home Box Office CEO Jeff Bewkes will give a keynote speech at the spring
SkyFORUM event in late April, the Satellite Broadcasting & Communications
Association said Monday.

'Given the tremendous growth of HBO and the changes that have taken place at
the network during his tenure, Jeff's speech should add some real excitement to
the event,' SBCA president Andy Wright said.

'We look forward to hearing about those experiences and, just as important,
what he envisions for the future of content distribution and programming,'
Wright added.

Bewkes has been with HBO since 1979.

SkyFORUM will be held Tuesday, April 30, at the Starlight Roof of The
Waldorf-Astoria in New York. More information on the daylong symposium is
