Thanks to James Cogan and Splashpress Media, I will be attending the nextMEDIA 2007 conference in Toronto on the 27th and 28th of November.

The conference hails itself as the monetizing digital media event and will have speakers from companies like YouTube, NBC Universal, Google, and many other heavy hitting companies.

I am very excited about attending and want to thank the organizers of the event for what is sure to be an amazing two days.

Here is some text from their website:

With the skyrocketing popularity of online video, social media and digital advertising, opportunities have never been greater for content creators, advertisers and online publishers to work together to leverage digital technology for increased profitability.

Enter nextMEDIA – Monetizing Digital Media: a unique digital entertainment, interactive advertising, and technology conference dedicated to connecting all sides of today’s rapidly evolving digital media marketplace. Delegates will come away with the tools and contacts that will enable them to create and execute profitable digital strategies for their organizations.

One of the things that has me really excited is the fact that there is only one stream of speakers to follow. While this makes presentations shorter than other events, I am very happy to not have to choose which sessions I hear, and which sessions I miss.

You can expect a lot of coverage of the conference here, and on other Splashpress Media blogs.
