FASTtrack: Future of Media, New York City
While Chris Heuer is in LA, Howard Greenstein will be in New York, facilitating this great event with Fast Search. FASTtrack: The Future of Media will feature panel discussions led by executives from several major media companies. Here you will learn how leading industry executives grapple with the challenges of an ever-shifting business landscape on a daily basis.

From their site: The media industry is in flux. In the first act, web search shook the industry by diverting eyeballs, commoditizing content, and usurping digital revenue. But the tides are turning. Today, the media firms are striking back—reclaiming what was rightfully theirs through their own branded, enterprise search platforms. How will you thrive in the midst of this second act? What do you need to deliver unique content to today’s “search generation”? How can you build loyal communities? What does your business model for monetization look like? If these questions are front and center for your organization, then this event is just for you.
