“Twelve rooms. Twelve technologies. One hundred executives”.
2-day, invitation-only, personalized showcase
targeting executive producers / showrunners from prominent TV series.
And media-directors / brand-managers from major advertising brands.
General Background:
ITA
will be taking over eight cottages and two multi-room bungalows at the historic
Miramar Hotel
above the beach in
Santa Monica.
The hotel site was the original home of the city's founder and was built around
the 80-foot Moreton Bay Fig Tree, now over 115 years old. Each room will be
hosted by a leading ITV company
showcasing interactive technologies--
applications that are
available today and operational today.
The program
begins with a
Progressive Dinner
on Thursday evening.
For three hours, we’ll navigate room-to-room, explore state-of-the-art
television applications, dine on tapas and wine, and mingle with peers and
press.
Friday is built around two
Roundtable Workshop
meals. Breakfast will highlight
4 media directors
from 4 major advertising brands. Lunch will bring in
4 leading executive
producers from 4
major TV series. During the day on Friday, participants will get
personalized
demonstrations
of the latest ITV applications. Producers and Brand Managers will begin
discussions with potential technology partners.
On Friday evening, we’ll travel off-site to the
Santa Monica Museum of Art
for a
Holiday Celebration and Dinner. We'll be hosting a special
Roundtable Discussion about the Writer's Strike with the Presidents
of the WGA, PGA and the IFTA.
As usual at ITA
events— there are
no panels, no powerpoints,
and no press.
Only pure peer discussion.
