Lots Going On
At Web 2.0 last week, I cornered the high-energy, super-sharp Valerie Cunningham about AlwaysOn’s just-announced OnHollywood summit — a gathering of the best and brightest in the movie and tech industries, coming to Hollywood on April 25-27, 2006.
Here’s Valerie’s 2 1/2-minute description of the conference (in MPEG-4). (Ourmedia page | watch video)
From the AlwaysOn announcement:
ONHOLLYWOOD is where cutting edge technology from the backstreets of Silicon Valley meets Hollywood’s digital media revolution. This two and a half day industry insider event borrows on the “film market” tradition by providing an open environment where 80 top digital entertainment and media entrepreneurs meet the big time studio, telco and consumer electronics executives. …
Among those invited are the top dogs from Yahoo, Disney, Sprint and other bigger players to mix it up with the entrepreneurs, VCs and talent agents that will be wandering the halls of the Roosevelt and hanging out at the pool party on opening night.
Count me in.
DISCLOSURE: I am working on a project with Val named GoingOn. So I dearly love her. This new show Tony Perkin’s is putting on will be at the Paramount in Hollywood. Cause Tony would only be caught dead in ONLY the swankiest, coolest new scenes.
