Participation
Ceia Group
If you're navigating the collision between technological velocity and regulatory inertia – and you have the authority to shape your organisation's response – you belong in this conversation.
Ceia Group roundtables are working sessions where streaming platform leaders build the governance frameworks their organisations will operate under. That requires specific expertise, decision-making authority and genuine stake in outcomes.
Who Belongs in the Room?
Our roundtables convene senior decision-makers who translate policy into operational strategy. We’re looking for leaders who:
01. Shape Strategic Direction
Set organisational priorities around regulatory positioning and market expansion
Determine resource allocation for compliance, government relations, and policy engagement
Make go/no-go decisions on product launches based on governance uncertainty
Translate external regulatory developments into internal operational guidance
02. Navigate Policy & Compliance
Manage relationships with regulators and government stakeholders
Interpret legislative proposals and assess business impact
Design compliance architectures that balance legal requirements with operational efficiency
Represent organisational interests in industry associations and policy forums
03. Drive Commercial Expansion
Lead international growth strategies requiring multi-jurisdiction navigation
Structure partnerships and distribution agreements in complex regulatory environments
Develop business models that work within (or around) existing governance frameworks
Make investment decisions dependent on regulatory clarity
04. Build Technical Infrastructure
Architect platform systems across incompatible data sovereignty regimes
Implement algorithmic transparency and content delivery protocols
Design security and privacy frameworks meeting diverse regulatory standards
Balance technical capability with compliance constraints
05. Manage Content & Rights
Navigate IP licensing complexity across territorial and technological boundaries
Develop creator compensation frameworks and revenue-share models
Implement content moderation and safety standards
Structure rights agreements in borderless distribution environments
Organisation Types We Convene
01
Major Streaming Platforms
Global services with multi-jurisdiction operations facing compliance complexity at scale. Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+ and similar organisations navigating governance across dozens of markets simultaneously.
02
Emerging OTT Providers
Regional and specialised streaming services building international presence. Platforms at the expansion inflection point where regulatory strategy determines market viability.
03
Content Aggregators
Distribution intermediaries managing rights and regulatory obligations across fragmented licensing landscapes. The connective tissue between content owners and audiences.
04
Technology Enablers
Infrastructure providers, CDN operators and platform-as-a-service companies whose technology underpins streaming delivery. The organisations building the pipes that future policy will regulate.
What Participation Involves
01
Quarterly Roundtables
Full-day structured dialogues across select European locations addressing 1-2 priority themes. Limited to 15-20 senior participants ensuring substantive discussion where every voice is heard.
02
Thematic Working Groups
Between roundtables, opt-in working groups develop specific frameworks for data protocols, transparency standards, communication pathways and business model guidelines. Asynchronous collaboration with quarterly synthesis sessions.
03
Policy Translation
Participants review frameworks before publication, ensuring synthesis accurately reflects consensus. Your anonymity is guaranteed; your expertise shapes the output.
04
Network Access
Direct connection to peers navigating identical challenges. The relationships built in our forums often prove as valuable as the frameworks produced.
Confidentiality Is Foundational
We've engineered discretion into every layer because meaningful governance collaboration requires absolute trust in the process.
Platform executives operate under constant scrutiny from competitors, regulators, media, consumers and investors. Candid discussion of operational challenges, business model experiments or compliance uncertainties carries professional risk when attributed.
Ceia Group always operates under Chatham House Rules (information can be used, sources cannot be identified) and in protected environments (private venues, encrypted platforms). Competitive intelligence and proprietary strategies will never be disclosed, and all participant organisations have full control over their own public messaging.
