The DVD Forum has announced that it will be celebrating its 10th anniversary at the annual general meeting being held today in Tokyo, Japan.
The DVD Forum, the international organization that defines formats for DVD products and technologies, today celebrated its official 10th anniversary at the annual general meeting of its members held in Tokyo. The Forum, which has been hailed as a model for collaboration between the consumer electronics, IT and entertainment industries, was founded in August 1997, to assume and extend the work of the DVD Consortium, the ten-company organization that initially developed the DVD format. When it started its work in developing the DVD format and promoting its widespread dissemination, the DVD Forum could count 86 members. Today, it has about 220 member companies, drawn from all over the world.
Technically, the DVD Forum's anniversary isn't until August 7th, but considering all that they've done, they deserve to celebrate. If you'd like to read more, the DVD Forum's entire press release can be found here.
