• Next VideoSchmooze Breakfast In NYC On December 1st

    I'm excited to announce the next VideoSchmooze breakfast/panel will be in New York, on Wednesday, December 1st at The Samsung Experience, located in the Time Warner Center, 10 Columbus Circle. The topic of our panel, which I'll moderate, is "How Connected and Mobile Devices are Transforming the Video Landscape." Panelists include:

    • Charlie Herrin - SVP, Products and Technology, Comcast Interactive Media
    • Doug Knopper - Co-CEO and Co-Founder, FreeWheel
    • Olivier Manuel - Director of Content, Samsung Electronics
    • Steve Robinson - CEO and Founder, Panache
    • Jeremiah Zinn - SVP, Digital Products, MTV

    Our discussion will occur right in the middle of an exciting holiday season in which both connected devices (e.g. Apple TV, Google TV, Roku, boxee, TiVo, gaming consoles, Blu-ray players, etc.) and mobile devices (e.g. iPhone, iPad, Android, etc.) will be among the hottest gifts. The explosion of these devices, which are ideal for "over-the-top" video viewing, portends a massive transformation of the traditional video landscape.

    Our panelists are ideally positioned to explain the connected/mobile revolution. They cover the range of industries involved: incumbent pay-TV provider/broadband ISP, online/mobile video monetization, consumer electronics/apps and premium quality content. Their perspectives will be invaluable for helping sort the hype from the reality. As with past VideoSchmooze events, attendees can expect a high-impact, interactive, educational session.

    There will be ample time for networking and audience Q&A. Samsung will also be hosting technology demonstrations of its connected devices for those interested. This VideoSchmooze breakfast is generously sponsored by Akamai Technologies, FreeWheel and Panache. It is being held in association with CTAM's New York chapter. The Fortex Group is providing marketing support.

    I hope you'll be able to join us at this special event! Early bird individual and group rates are now available.
