Leading entertainment trade publication, Variety, will welcome the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge at its Venture Capital and New Media Summit. The goal of the Summit is for innovators to be funded, translating ideas into growing companies and supporting a new generation of entrepreneurs. The Summit will take place on Friday, July 8 at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills.
Variety’s Venture Capital and New Media Summit, presented in association with InternationalEsq. and supported by UK Trade & Investment, will explore how start-up expertise is transforming the entertainment business, identify the next generation of technology all-stars, analyze which major societal trends are impacting product development, and uncover today’s masters of social media. The Summit will also feature London’s ‘Tech City’ initiative which was launched by the UK Government to build on the existing cluster of technology companies in east London, to create a world-leading technology center. Tech City is home to one of the largest concentrations of small, fast-growing digital technology companies in Europe.
Top investment, technology and media leaders — including Rovio Strategic Advisor and Former Marvel Studios Chairman David Maisel, National Amusements President Shari Redstone, Consumer Electronics CEO and President Gary Shapiro, Intel Capital Managing Director Marc Yi and Sony Pictures Entertainment CTO Mitch Singer — will be featured at the Summit.
