IBF expands to cover digital streaming platforms; renamed as Indian Broadcasting and Digital Foundation By siliconindia | Thursday, 27 May 2021, 12:03 Hrs The Indian Broadcasting Foundation(IBF), the apex body of broadcasters, is expanding its purview to cover digital streaming platforms and has now been renamed as the Indian Broadcasting and Digital Foundation (IBDF). The move would bring the broadcasters and OTT (over-the-top) platforms, which have seen a significant jump in their viewership base after the pandemic, under one roof. In support of this, the IBDF is in the process of forming a new wholly-owned subsidiary to handle all matters of digital media, said a statement.
