OK, we’ve got a solid nucleus for our Interactive Local Media event, which is Dec. 9-11 at our favorite hotel, The Century Plaza in LA. Here’s the registration info.
The show typically attracts about 500 senior level execs, and is a living thing that evolves with the times. This year, we’ve got many great new speakers; SuperForums for Mobile Local Media and Digital Out of Home; and a lot of new LOCAL research.
You want names? My colleagues Mike Boland, Matt Booth, Rick Ducey and I have been busy recruiting. Here is the initial speaker lineup.
