2007-2008 Digital Media & Tech Conferences To Watch
Every second counts on the Internet. Time is the standard for rating success. How quickly can you raise capital? How quickly can you design an interface? How quickly can you create a commercial? How quickly can you drive traffic to your site? While the need for speed is a given in the game of Internet business, consolidating your financial, design, and marketing agendas into a single executable gesture is the master stroke that industry veterans wage to keep their edge. It’s not as complicated as it sounds; all you have to do is show up at a conference of the minds. Pick any of the following digital media expos to source venture capitalists, design talent, and media buys in a single day.
Digital Rights Strategies, held Sept 17th 2007 in NYC at the Pierre Hotel is an exceptional conference to network with the leaders in digital media content provision, new security designs in regards to DRM and watermarking tech, as well as meet up with premiere companies leading the way in white-label content distribution solutions. Digital Bazaar’s CEO Manu Sporny, the founder of Bitmunk, will speak on the Watermarking and Fingerprinting panel.
Play, also known as The Berkely Digital Media Conference, held on October 27th, 2007 at the Haas School of Business at University of California Berkeley is attended by those looking for the best in both creative and analytical minds. More of a problem-solving tournament, this conference highlights emerging talent at the University, and is frequented by companies looking to bring in new blood and innovation to their rosters. As an attending business professional, just look for the flip-flops or the button-downs to determine who’s who.
Digital Hollywood Fall, held Oct 29-Nov 1, 2007 at two different hotels (The Grand Ballroom and The Renaissance Hollywood Hotel) in Hollywood, CA, is the event to secure new content for your retail or streaming distribution site. Major producers and providers will be in attendance and the goal is to network, network, and network until your blue in the face with new distribution licenses in hand.
Less than a year away, D: All Things Digital, also known as The D Conference, held May 27-29 2008 at the Four Seasons Resort Aviara in Carlsbad, CA is a small, intimate gathering of digital media’s biggest players. This past year, Jobs and Gates joined Walt Mossberg and Kara Swisher for a ground-breaking discussion on their companies’ impact on our tech landscape and their future as competitors. Sign up early and hope for an invitation, as the event is usually sold out many months in advance. An opportunity to attend not only networks you with executive decision makers in tech and digital content, but also with media professionals in the traditional press and blogosphere.
