What our speakers at the event have to say:
“This conference will assess who will make the money and where”
Roger Colman, Director - Media Analyst, CCZ Statton Equities Pty Ltd
“Media throughout the world is in an absolute crossroads period and the GFC will have an unwelcome effect, particularly on a country with a painstakingly slow broadband service. We are obliged to move ahead regardless so it’s a crucial time to hear what the controllers of media in this country and our neighbours are thinking and how they plan to cope with the current climate.”
Matt Campbell, Director of TV and On-Line Content, SBS Television
"A unique and innovative two-way format makes which makes for a very engaging and informative experience. Add to that the conference focus which mirrors the platform convergence happening in the wider industry"
Gerry Gouy, Senior Director Business Development International Digital Media, MTV Networks International
"Traditional media business models are not just shifting, they're being obliterated. Content lives globally across all platforms and this event is essential for remaining involved with the evolution of media."
Chris Gunn, Director Digital Media Partnerships & Branded Entertainment, Endemol (USA)
"As the old world media economy becomes swallowed up by a much richer and vibrant new world media economy, consumers are deciding what they want, when they want it and on what they want it. Every business is challenged. The Australasian Media and Broadcasting Congress and its speakers identify the opportunities arising from these challenges."
Gary Hardwick, Managing Partner, Ikon Communications
“The digital age is here – for all media. Video advertising is booming and, for TV and online, convergence is already a reality. But digital technologies are not the threat to advertising that was always feared. If dealt with correctly they represent a huge opportunity. It is incumbent upon all of us within the industry – broadcasters, sales houses, marketers and agencies – to understand these opportunities. The 4th Annual Australasian Media and Broadcasting Congress 2009 should provide a great platform for learning about this rapidly changing digital landscape.”
Robert Leach, Head MCn Connect, MCn
"Founding editor of Wired Magazine Kevin Kelly said it best : "Online culture is THE culture." Anybody who doubts this truth would equally have doubted the power of Car Culture to transform our physical world, or consumer/mass-media culture to transform our way of life. Online culture is here, it's elected presidents, toppled governments and brought industrial-era titans to their knees - and many people still have the gall to call it 'new media'. Time to wake up!"
Tim Parsons, Co-Founder, Mobile Monday Sydney
