    DEUTSCHE TV-PLATTFORM: HYBRID TV - BETTER TV HBBTV AND MUCH, MUCH MORE Deutsche TV Platform (DTVP) was founded more than 25 years ago to introduce and develop digital media tech- nologies based on open standards. Consequently, DTVP was also involved in the introduction of HbbTV. When the HbbTV initiative started at the end of 2008, three of the four participating companies were members of the DTVP: IRT, Philips, SES Astra. Since then, HbbTV has played an important role in the work of DTVP. For example, DTVP did achieve the activation of HbbTV by default on TV sets in Germany; currently, HbbTV 2.0 is the subject of a ded- icated DTVP task force within the Working Group Smart Media. HbbTV is a perfect blueprint for the way DTVP works by promoting the exchange of information and opinions between market participants, stakeholders and social groups, coordinating their various interests. In addition, DTVP informs the public about technological develop- ments and the introduction of new standards.
