Invite to speak at Cross Media Summit June 27 London...
Kendra Initiative is holding its second Cross Media Summit for Content Discovery in London on Wednesday June 27 - the Strategy, Technology and Business Case for Content Description, Visibility, Search and Discovery.
I would like to invite you to participate as a speaker - to share your knowledge in this field: the issues, problems and solutions. This Summit will bring together business strategy and technical know-how from all media industry sectors to work through the issues, innovate and answer the question: the Universal Catalogue - is there the will to build it?
Experts from all content sectors (music, film, image, publishing, interactive and gaming) will be speaking. Participants will benefit from the experiences of their counterparts in other arts, media and technology sectors.
In the morning we will have a rapid fire speaker session - each speaker will get not more than 10 minutes to say: who they are; what are the problems and what are the solutions to content discovery. We'll have speakers from all the media sectors. In the afternoon we'll digest the issues in plenary sessions mixed with group work.
Recording and Webcasting:
- This time we will:
- Video the whole event
- The proceedings will be filmed professionally. The film of the event will be used for the KendraWorldTour and support material.
- An on-demand stream will be provided after the event.
- Take loads of still pictures
- Record and stream good quality audio
- Let delegates and speakers know in advance that it will be recorded and they are expected to use a radio mic.
- The Summit will be webcast (just an audio feed or skypecast will be acceptable - but video would be cool) live over the Internet. This will facilitate debate with a much wider audience. There are already a number of KendraMembers saying they would like to participate remotely.
