an innovative event for policymakers

The Internet is rapidly evolving into a full-fledged video medium, offering consumers boundless choices for traditional TV and film viewing, along with innovative forms of news, entertainment, sports, political communications and long-awaited, mass market videoconferencing.  The rise of the Internet as a dynamic alternative to traditional methods of video content distribution is placing great strain on the laws, regulations and policies governing all communications, quickly calling into question decades-old statutes, regulatory requirements and intellectual property frameworks.

The pressures on legislators, regulators and policymakers to fix the cracks caused by this technological revolution will only accelerate as more video content migrates to the Internet and as society adjusts to the always-on, unlimited video options the broadband Internet makes possible.  Therefore, Reed Business Information and Emerging Media Dynamics are proud to host The Internet Video Policy Symposium, a groundbreaking, invitation-only, off-the-record event designed to educate and inform policy-makers about the complex issues surrounding the rise of Internet video.

This timely event is aimed at government officials who are responsible for developing the laws and policies that will shape this new medium.  The Internet Video Policy Symposium will offer a balanced, unbiased agenda featuring top legal, business and policy leaders, who will examine the most important issues surrounding the emergence of Internet video.  This off-the-record event will cut to the chase and spell out the important issues that will increasingly dominate communications policy developments in Washington…and throughout capitals around the globe.

Stay tuned as we further develop our agenda for the Symposium and check back often for updates.

Sponsors will have the opportunity for limited attendance at the Symposium.  Find out more about the sponsorship options available.
