In the heart of Amsterdam, amidst the bustling halls of the world’s most influential broadcast media convention—IBC 2016—one name from Bangladesh made a powerful impression: Sk Monoar Nahid. Representing Channel 24, a leading Bangladeshi news broadcaster, Nahid was honored by two global giants, Adobe and Vizrt, for his exceptional creative contributions to broadcast graphics. This recognition not only celebrated his personal achievement but also marked a historic moment for Bangladesh on the international stage of media technology.

The International Broadcasting Convention (IBC), held annually at the RAI Amsterdam, brings together over 50,000 attendees from more than 170 countries. It is a global platform where media, entertainment, and technology intersect. In 2016, the event featured cutting-edge innovations in content creation, management, and delivery, making it a mecca for industry leaders and creative pioneers.

Sk Monoar Nahid attended IBC 2016 as a delegate from Channel 24 Bangladesh. During the event, Adobe—renowned for its creative software like After Effects and Premiere Pro—and Vizrt, a Norwegian broadcast graphics company known for real-time 3D graphics and automation, jointly hosted a social event as part of their creative outreach. At this gathering, they honored Monoar Nahid with a special recognition and awarded him a one-year subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud. The acknowledgment served as a powerful endorsement of Nahid’s vision and capability as a visual innovator.

This moment was not just a personal milestone for Nahid, but also a significant step forward for the South Asian broadcast design community. In a room filled with top-tier developers, producers, and technologists from across the globe, his name echoed as a symbol of emerging talent from Bangladesh. Dressed in a sharp suit with his official IBC badge proudly reading “MONOAR NAHID – CHANNEL 24 – BANGLADESH,” he stood between Vizrt executives as cameras captured a moment of international pride.

Vizrt, known for empowering broadcasters with real-time graphics, virtual sets, and studio automation tools, frequently collaborates with media innovators at global forums like IBC. Adobe, a cornerstone in creative industries worldwide, sponsors such events to encourage boundary-pushing design talent. The collaboration between these giants to spotlight Monoar Nahid was a nod to his years of dedication in transforming Bangladeshi television graphics.
