Welcome to iTVCon!

Did you already purchase your .tv domain name? You can't afford not to add Internet TV to your Website in 2007!

The past year has been the year of streaming video and the birth of Internet TV, the long-awaited convergence of television and the Internet. Now that broadband is available to more than 100 million households worldwide, every corporate Website and every media company must now provide video content to remain competitive, not to mention live and interactive video Webinars and on-demand Webcasts.

Internet television--or iTV--is wide open, it is global, and in true "Web 2.0" spirit it is a direct-to-consumer opportunity. It is creating new business models, leveling the playing field for companies of all sizes, and developing a new, 21st-century television culture.

SYS-CON Events, the world's leading producer of i-technology conferences, is thus proud and passionate in delivering to you the First Internet TV Conference and Expo--iTVCon.com 2007. We have developed a multi-track event that will be delivered over an intense one-and-a-half days that promises to broaden your iTV view and knowledge, allow you to network with your fellow pioneering colleagues and peers, and transform the future of your business.

Look back 20 years, and witness the advent of desktop publishing tools that opened the doors for the creation of some of today's well-known traditional print media companies as well as revolutionized corporate print communications. Today, with maturing digital video production, the advent of fully-featured PVRs, and significant advances in streaming video technologies, Internet TV is here to stay and grow and will be a critical part of every Website and every business in the years to come.

It will also very rapidly become a huge challenge to network and cable television stations: Internet TV is about to change forever the $300BN television industry, too. The Internet killed most of print media (even though many publishers donÂ’t realize it yet), Google killed traditional advertising models, and Internet TV will revolutionize television the way we watch it today. You need to be part of this change!

Whether you are a programmer, architect, writer, producer, or management executive chartered with building your company's iTV strategy, November 12-13, 2007 is the time and San Francisco is the place to be. On that note we welcome you to the first Internet TV Conference & Expo 2007.
