Samsung UK celebrated 20 consecutive years as the world’s leading TV brand with an exclusive event for 80 retailers, partners and media at BAFTA in London.

 

The event celebrated both past achievements alongside a focus on the future of entertainment. It showcased the very latest technologies from OLED and The Frame Pro through to the Music Studio speakers and the 115” Micro RGB, that were all on show on the night.

 

Dan Harvie, VP of Home Entertainment and Appliances for SEUK and Ireland, opened the night by reflecting on the company’s journey to date, its relentless drive for innovation and its pivotal role in the future of home entertainment. He spoke of the transformation from the humble black-and-white model to today’s TVs that provide a gateway to immersive AI experiences.

 

 

Partners and media were then treated to a special evening of food and drinks in a room that was lit up with astounding projection mapping at the exclusive venue. There were celebratory red, green and blue cocktails replicating ‘RGB’ and guests were treated to an enthralling discussion between two of UK TVs most popular personalities.

 

 

Gordon Buchannan who has travelled the world filming the most amazing wildlife scenes in some of the most extreme locations on earth and Vernon Kay a talented presenter who has been on UK TV and radio fronting everything from entertainment shows through to sport and game shows.

 

 

The message from the fireside chat between the two was clear – TVs are central to shared experiences and bring people together through moments of connection.

 

 

The event concluded with an exclusive performance from up and coming UK artist Ninush who is a highly accomplished violinist as well as singer, having arranged strings and performed with the likes of Holly Humberstone, JADE, Little Simz and Anne Marie.
