Nominees in four categories will pitch their projects to a judging panel of BBC Commissioners on April 5-6, 2006, at MIPTV featuring MILIA.
In addition, content developers will be invited to compete for the "DMB (Digital Multimedia Broadcasting)/MobileTV Content and Applications Award," presented by the Korean Broadcasting Commission.
