What is the iMedia Brand Summit?
Where can you go to meet more than 120 senior level marketing executives from major brand companies controlling billions of dollars in interactive marketing budgets? Probably no where else other than iMedia’s Brand Summit, September 10 -13, 2006, at Lake Las Vegas.
Now in its fifth year, the Brand Summit’s primary goal is to bring together brand marketing executives with peers and solution providers to share ideas and tackle hard issues surrounding the integration and application of interactive media in their overall marketing mix. Set, as always, in a comfortable resort setting, iMedia’s Brand Summits deliver a dynamic combination of session content featuring top-level speakers and numerous opportunities for networking between marketers and solution providers in an exclusive, invitation-only environment.
Who develops the Content?
An Advisory Board of industry executives meets with iMedia staff months before each Summit to map out the conference theme and major issues to be addressed. The goal is to create a program that not only provides targeted, actionable insight on the industry’s current issues, but does so in a way that encourages all attendees to participate and contribute to the dialogue.
The Advisory Board is composed of following industry thought leaders:
Andy Shih, Beauty Interactive Marketing and P&G I-Media Scale Leader, Procter & Gamble
Victor Cho, VP Web Marketing & Commerce, Intuit
Caroline Slootweg, Digital and New Media Marketing Director, Unilever
Duane Dahl, President / CEO, Perfectmatch.com
Pam Stein, CEO, Charlotte's Web Marketing
Sean Cheyney, VP, Marketing & Business Development, AccuQuote
Jarvis Coffin, CEO, BURST! Media
Riley McDonough, SVP, WebMD
Angela Chen, Senior Manager, Customer Acquisition Marketing, DIRECTV
Additional advisors on each Summit Board: iMedia’s Rick Parkhill, Kurt Indvik, Brad Berens, Rebecca Weeks and Upstream Group President Doug Weaver.
