Early bird discounted registration for VideoNuze's next "VideoSchmooze" Broadband Video Leadership Evening ends this Friday. VideoSchmooze is 2 weeks away, on Monday, April 26th. The event runs from 6-9pm at the Hudson Theater in New York City and includes open bar, hors d'oeuvres and a full educational program. As an extra incentive, early bird registrants only will be entered for a chance to win an iPad.
If you're eager to better understand the online video industry and meet interesting colleagues, VideoSchmooze is for you. The panel, which I'll moderate, is "Money Talks: Is Online Video Shifting to the Paid Model?" The discussion follows on last week's complimentary "Demystifying Free vs. Paid Online Video." Our executive panelists for this VideoSchmooze discussion represent multiple perspectives in this key debate:
Jeremy Legg - SVP, Business Development, Turner Broadcasting System, Inc.
We're also incredibly fortunate to have a 15-minute stage-setting presentation by Emily Nagle Green, President and CEO of Yankee Group, a leading industry market research and consulting firm. Emily is the author of the recently published book, "Anywhere - How Global Connectivity is Revolutionizing the Way We Do Business." Emily has been on the front lines of researching the broadband video revolution for 15+ years and previously ran Forrester's North American business. Emily will share key data from Yankee's research and her book, which will set the stage for the panel to follow.
From 6-7:30pm, prior to Emily's presentation, we'll have open bar, hors d'oeuvres and networking. Attendance is running strong and we have executives from many major media companies and industry technology providers registered. VideoSchmooze is a terrific opportunity to expand your network and meet the panelists.
I try to keep the VideoSchmooze attendance fee reasonable (at least by NYC standards!) and am grateful to lead sponsor Akamai Technologies and supporting sponsors FreeWheel, Horn Group, Irdeto, NeuLion, Panvidea and ScanScout for their support. Once again VideoSchmooze is being held in association with NATPE. You can follow VideoSchmooze and get updates that evening on Twitter at hashtag #vidooze
