Join Me at CES - On 2 Digital Media Panels

Ahh yes, ’tis the season.  And, that means that the annual mega-media/tech ritual known as the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is right around the corner.

Depending on what your state of mind is, start off the new year right by joining me at CES.  This is my 10th (?) CES (really, who counts anymore?).  And, I will participate in two separate digital media panels on Monday, January 6th -- moderating one and serving as a panelist on the other.

I will moderate the opening panel for Digital Media Wire’s “Digital Music at International CES” sub-conference -- it is titled “The State of Digital Music: A View from the Top” and features top execs from various segments of the music eco-system in order to give different (and perhaps divergent) perspectives (i.e., John Rubey, President of AEG Network Live; Eric Johnson, EVP & GM of Games & Media at CBS Interactive; long-time top music exec Jay Boberg, Chairman of INgrooves Fontana; and Nick Panama, co-founder of Cantora, Mainframe Group who manage top acts like MGMT).

My second panel is titled “The New Hollywood Equation - Content Owners, New Platforms, Agents & Commerce” and is part of “Digital Hollywood” at CES.  I will join other fellow panelists Glasgwow Phillips, SVP Creative for leading MCN Maker Studios; Sarah Passe, Business Development executive at leading talent agency Creative Artists Agency; David Tochterman, Head of Digital Media at fellow agency Innovative Artists; Steven Katelman, partner at law firm Greenberg Traurig; Craig Palmer, CEO of Wikia; Lisa Black, EVP Content & Business Development of Vin Di Bona Productions; and moderator Mark Kapczynski, COO of Kontrol Media.

Come watch the sparks fly (or not) on these panels -- or reach out to me via LinkedIn to schedule a meeting.  That’s the best way to squeeze the most utility out of CES.
