Posts for 'Broadband Video Leadership Breakfast'

Please save the date for 2 amazing VideoNuze events coming up in October.

First, on Tuesday, Oct. 13th, VideoNuze will host its next "VideoSchmooze" broadband video leadership evening at the magnificent Hudson Theater in New York City. Microsoft Silverlight is the lead sponsor of the evening, with Akamai, FAST Search & Transfer and mPoint currently on board as supporting sponsors. Once again, NATPE is partnering with VideoNuze for the event.

As with the March '09 VideoSchmooze, the evening will run from 6-9pm and feature great industry networking plus a discussion I'll moderate with an awesome group of industry executives:

• Dina Kaplan - COO and co-founder, blip.tv
• George Kliavkoff - EVP & Deputy Group Head, Hearst Entertainment & Syndication (and formerly Chief Digital Officer, NBCU)
• Perkins Miller - SVP, Digital Media and GM, NBCU Sports & Olympics
• Matt Strauss - SVP, New Media, Comcast

Each of the panelists and their companies are playing a key role in broadband video's growth and evolution. The title of the discussion is "Realizing Broadband Video's Potential" and we'll dig deep into all of the key technology, business model and strategy topics that I write about each day, while also allowing ample time for audience Q&A.

Early bird registration will open soon. At the last VideoSchmooze in March, we had 270+ attendees, so if you're interested in joining us, I encourage you to register early to secure a spot.

Then on Monday morning, October 26th, VideoNuze will host its second "Broadband Video Leadership Breakfast" at the CTAM Summit, this year in Denver, CO. thePlatform is the lead sponsor of the breakfast, with Akamai, ExtendMedia and KickApps currently on board as supporting sponsors. During the sit-down continental breakfast, I'll moderate a panel titled "How Cable Succeeds in the Broadband Video Era" with:

• Ian Blaine - CEO, thePlatform
• Rebecca Glashow - SVP, Digital Media Distribution, Discovery Communications
• Bruce Leichtman - President and Principal Analyst, Leichtman Research Group (the leading broadband and cable industry market research firm)
• Plus 1 other executive

As VideoNuze readers know, the cable TV industry - both operators and networks - is a central player in broadband video's ongoing development. You can expect to hear an in-depth and data-driven discussion of TV Everywhere, walled-garden vs. open video distribution strategies, paid vs. ad-supported business models, changing consumer viewing preferences and behaviors, viability of "over-the-top" competition and recent technology/convergence device developments.

I look forward to seeing you at one or both of these exciting industry events!

We're less than a week away from our inaugural Broadband Video Leadership Breakfast on Nov. 10th. The breakfast, in association with CTAM's New York and New England chapters, will be held in Boston at 7:30am, preceding the first full day of the annual CTAM Summit (separate registration).

I'll be moderating the session which is entitled "How to Profit from Broadband Video's Disruptive Impact" and features an A-list group of executives:

• Deanna Brown - President, SN Digital, Scripps Networks
• David Eun - Vice President, Content Partnerships, Google/YouTube
• Roy Price - Director, Digital Video, Amazon
• Fred Seibert - Creative Director/Co-Founder, Next New Networks
• Peter Stern - Executive Vice President, Chief Strategy Officer, Time Warner Cable

I'm so excited about the opportunity to have these 5 executives participate and share their perspectives on what's going on in the broadband video world. We'll dig into many of the themes I've explored on VideoNuze, such as business models, syndication, broadband-only studios, the role of existing and emerging distributors, the impact of the financial crisis and more.

The breakfast is a must attend for all broadband video participants. You're certain to come away with tons of valuable information and insight that can help you navigate the changing video landscape.

The event is technically sold-out, with approximately 250 registrants currently. But we've been able to squeeze in two more tables to accommodate another 10-20 attendees. If you're interested, please register now!
