Why you should attend ConXis!

Chris @ RCN · 24th January 2002, 14:31

ConXis is a not-for-profit conference dedicated to independent broadcasters in the internet streaming industry. This is the first year that ConXis will be held; it will initially be small, but we expect attendance to grow with each subsequent year. Right now, there are a few conferences held for the internet streaming industry, but we feel that one group that is being excluded is the core of the industry - the independent broadcaster.

Most conferences focus on the "big" players in the industry, but historically, that is not where the growth in this industry has been. Just take a look at www.live365.com or www.shoutcast.com and you will know where the heart of the industry lies. This is a virtually untapped market.

Speakers scheduled to appear include Michael Bryant of Sonic Foundry, David Frerichs from iM Networks, "DJ Ari" Ari Shohat from the #1 ShoutCast station - DigitallyImported.com, representatives from ASCAP and other , and many more leaders in the video and audio streaming industries. More detailed information of topics and speakers is available on the ConXis website.

The purpose of ConXis is to expand the resources available to an independent broadcaster. Resources that will help them be part of this growing internet streaming industry that The Wall Street Journal has estimated will be a $2.6 billion industry by the end of 2003.

We hope to foster a free exchange of ideas so that we can become a strong community of broadcasters and work together to allow internet streaming (both video and audio) to continue to grow and fulfill its market potential. Especially now, when broadband internet is becoming a mainstay in homes around the world, we need to act to give broadcasters the very resources they need to succeed.

Such is the purpose of ConXis. We keep our rates at a reasonable level so that independent broadcasters can afford to attend this event. We are a not-for-profit conference, so we are merely providing a service to the community and not trying to make money off of this venture.

The cost for full-registration is $309 per person, which includes breakfast and lunches, admittance to the conference and expo, the Friday Night Dance Party, The ConXis Gong Show on Saturday, and more.

If you would like more information about ConXis, please visit our website at www.conxis.org .

Consider attending the event to learn what some of the key issues are with the very heart of this growing industry.

Either way, I believe that your participation in ConXis is beneficial for your company, and I look forward to working with you.

Thanks
