TV Committee

The EBU's TV Committee, elected during the TV Assembly, oversees the operations of the EBU's TV services and assists in steering the operational and strategic direction. The Chairman and President are nominated by the TV Committee.

The TV Committee monitors the progress of events like the Eurovision Song Contest, approves the strategy of the television services and controls the television development fund. Moreover they help establish standards and procedures. The committee meets 4 times throughout the year, with remaining business conducted electronically. Since 2013 the TV Committee also has held joint meetings with the Radio Committee and the Digital Steering Committee.

The election for the 2023-2025 Committee took place on 4 May, during the Media Summit 2023.
