Future of Local Media (FLM) Salon Series: What's 'IN' your inbox?

WHEN Tuesday, September 29, 2009 - 6:30-9:00pm

WHERE BBH Labs 32 Avenue of the Americas 19th Floor New York, NY 10013

ABOUT When it comes to finding out about hot spots, events and services in your area, sometimes there’s no better place to look than your inbox. Instead of searching the web, everything comes to you on a daily basis via social filters and local city guides.

For years, insiders and newbies alike have relied on curated content often distributed via free daily emails, websites and print to find out what’s happening around them. However, as the technologies that enable mobile, video and social networking continues to grow, new start ups emerge daily to compete for a slice of the local ad market. How much do we as consumers rely on a trusted brand's perspective as opposed to our peers? Will social filtering via web services (i.e. Twitter, Facebook, etc.) replace or enhance these cultural kings (and queens) of curation?

Please join us on Tuesday, September 29th as we explore what the future holds for the distribution and consumption of local content. Come out to learn from and network with other Local Media Makers. We hope to see you there!

Panelists: Lindsay Kaplan, Publicity Manager, TimeOutNY Ben Lerer, Founder, Thrillist Mark Mangan, Co-founder, CEO, Flavorpill Lance Broumand, Publisher, UrbanDaddy

Event Format: Each month, we focus on one specific topic within the local media space. FLM starts w/ a 30 min ‘open forum’ where up to five people have an opportunity to present a company, favorite service, crazy idea, etc. to the audience. Immediately following the forum, we hold our Salon Series panel where select industry executives discuss the future of that month’s topic.
