Panel Discussion
The world of television is not what it used to be. Things
are changing rapidly and it’s important for the professional advisor to be aware of these changes to best serve their
television-based clients. In this session, a mixture of traditional and new media business leaders will offer valuable
insights into the changing media landscape, the decline of
linear television ratings and the financial impact of new
on-demand platforms on traditional television business
models.
We hope that you can join us for this timely and informative discussion.
