OnHollywood
February 2, 2008


Save the Date! OnHollywood 2008 will take place June 10-11 at the Sofitel in Hollywood, CA.

OnHollywood
is where cutting-edge technology CEOs from the back streets of Silicon Valley meet the Hollywood digital entertainment and media elite. This two day executive event features high-level debates on which forces are disrupting user behavior and creating new opportunities, content strategies and monetization schemes in the video, music, gaming, search, and mobile industries. Our editors will also honor the OnHollywood 100 Top Private Companies and feature the Best of Broadband "BOB" Awards. Fifty of the top CEOs from the OnHollywood 100 will pitch their market strategies to a panel of industry experts in our "CEO Showcase."

During OnHollywood, the buyers and sellers of broadband content will set up shop in the backrooms of the Sofitel in the first annual Broadband Rights Marketplace (BRiM). BRiM is equally supportive of digital artists from all over the globe that may be at various stages of their careers producing a wide variety of creative including: webisodes, animation, comedy, documentary, news, commercials, shorts, gaming and virtual reality. BRiM will continue year-round in a dynamic online network that features and solicits nominations and community feedback on new creative and offers a digital-rights exchange and auction.

"OnHollywood stands out as an executive summit that brings together
the thought leaders, executives and deal makers in digital media. From Hollywood
to Silicon Valley, no media brand bridges those two worlds better than AlwaysOn."
 
 --- Richard Rosenblatt, Co-Founder, Chairman and CEO, Demand Media
