The Banff World Television Festival is a huge draw for anyone in the television and entertainment industry, with over 1,500 attendees and 150 commissioning editors. nextMEDIA 2007: The Future of Digital Content, is held in the 2 days prior to the BWTF, looks to be a much more intimate event. Thus, it looks like a great chance to meet and interact with some experts in the Internet TV space, including Stacey Seltzer, Senior Vice President, Content Strategy, Acquisition & Operations, Joost and Joanna Drake Earl, President, New Media, Current TV.
With all the reports of TV being dead, it's very interesting to see how much more popular the traditional television conference is over the digital content conference. (Apparently, nobody told these guys). I'm thinking of attending, especially because of all the hype around Joost - and it would really pay off if Stacey put me on their beta list!
