nextMEDIA - Monetizing Digital Media Wraps on a High Note

nextMEDIA - Monetizing Digital Media conference was the place to be for anyone interested in rubbing shoulders with the who’s who of the digital media industry. The two-day event brought out, and brought together, the top movers and shakers in the Canada/US digital media industry while delivering a solid program of presentations, panels, in-depth case studies, and networking opportunities.

Among the attendees were: Joseph Arcuri, CEO of AOL Canada; Brandon Berger, Director of Digital Innovation, MDC partners; Sunni Boot, President & CEO, Zenith Optimedia; Leonard Brody, CEO of Now Public; Joe Casale, CEO of Casale Media; Sarah Diamond, President of OCAD; Michael Hennessy, VP, Telus; Chris Jordan, President & CEO, Young and Rubicam; Raja Khanna, Founder & COO of QuickPlay Media and Kurt David Kratchman, Chief Strategy Officer at Schematic.

“We took a chance with an eclectic program that paid off in a diverse and exciting turnout of speakers, delegates, and sponsors,” says Mark Greenspan, Director of Digital Media for Achilles Media Ltd. “As a result, we will continue to expand our nextMEDIA series of events and activities.”

One of the main highlights of the conference was the opening panel discussion moderated by Achilles Media CEO, Robert Montgomery and featuring John Hadl, Founder of the P&G Ad Lab; Jeffrey Stier, Senior Partner of J Walter Thompson; and Kurt David Kratchman, Chief Strategy Officer at Schematic. Their discussions around the most effective ways to monetize digital media set the tone for subsequent presentations and emphasized a radical restructuring of the advertising model as we know it.

Other highlights included

“outside-the-traditional-media-box” presentations by Attik (William Travis), GoTV Networks (Daniel Tibbetts), Heavy.com (David Carson), Organic (Chad Stoller), Treehugger (Lloyd Alter) and VICE (Jacob Gavin).

nextMEDIA - Monetizing Digital Media was also the platform for a major announcement by Pierre Karl Péladeau, President & CEO of Quebecor Inc., whose new venture, Canoe.TV, gives users access to content from a number of Canadian creators and publishers.

nextMEDIA - Monetizing Digital Media is the first in a series of new events produced by Achilles Media that address the highest areas of growth in the digital media industry. The company will be announcing additional events and programs flying under this banner in early 2008.
