“I've been to hundreds of conferences throughout my career – I have to say you guys put on a great conference. The content was great, but the opportunity to interact with attendees was outstanding. Not sure why the vibe at your conference was so much easier for making introductions - but it seemed like people came to that event expecting to meet.” —Annette Tonti, CEO, Mofuse
“The show was very informative. It got me thinking about things a little differently.” —Steve Zuckerman, CEO, Clipper Magazine
“Very good event and especially good for broadcasters who are working
on digital initiatives. It is vital to see what is cutting
edge, what VC dollars are funding and what consumers are gravitating towards
in the field so that we know where to focus our energies in the future
and make informed decisions regarding development. To me these are not
to be missed conferences. Mediums are merging, and as broadcasters we need
to see how to monetize our content.” —Randa Minkarah, Senior VP, Business
Development, Fisher Communications
