Streaming Media East Here I Come!

I'll be making my first trek to New York City next month to attend Streaming Media East, where I'll be moderating a panel session on video publishing platforms. Now in its 13th year, the Streaming Media East show is one of the longest running conferences and exhibitions dedicated to the business and technology of online video. Content owners, viral video creators, online marketers, enterprise corporations, broadcast professionals, ad agencies, educators, and others all come to Streaming Media East to see and hear the latest online video technology but, more importantly, to discuss the business models that are coming of age.

With more than 100 speakers across 30 sessions, Streaming Media East is still the one online video show that is solely focused on real information you can apply immediately in your business. Streaming Media East combines cutting-edge exhibitors and intensive conference sessions, giving you the chance to hear and see the best and the brightest minds in the online video industry—at the podium, in the Exhibit Hall, and among the attendees. Nearly 75% of the speakers are customers who are buying and deploying these services and products today, and share what is and isn't working.

I'll be moderating the following panel session on Tuesday, May 11th at 1:45 pm ET:

Media Framework: Video Publishing Platforms
Moderator: Larry Kless, Founder, President, OnlineVideoPublishing.com
Bismarck C LepePresident, Products, Ooyala
Ron Yekutiel, Chairman, CEO, Kaltura
Daniel Webster, SVP, Media, The NewsMarket
Jason Liebman, CEO, Co-Founder, Howcast
A number of vendors offer video publishing platforms, the features and functionality-not to mention cost-vary widely. Some vendors focus their solutions on content management and monetization, while others are geared towards enabling syndication and interactive advertising campaigns. Adding to the confusion is the fact that different platform vendors have different metrics for billing, and costs rise as content owners become more successful. This session will lay the groundwork for content owners to better understand what type of publishing platform they need and what they should expect to pay for managing content.
