Back home! Too soon?

VON Dr. Wolf SiegertZUM Dienstag Letzte Bearbeitung: 16. Januar 2015 um 00 Uhr 57 Minuten

 

An diesem Tag soll die USA-Reise ihr - ungeplant spätes - Ende finden.

Dabei wäre der 27. April 2010 noch einer der Tage gewesen, an dem es sich wahrlich noch gelohnt hätte, in den USA zu bleiben.

An diesem Tag nämlich präsentieren Draper Fisher Jurvetson and VLAB - das MIT/Stanford Venture Lab [1] eine ganz besondere Veranstaltung zum Thema: The Future of Video!

The way we consume video is inexorably changing.. YouTube alone sees a full day’s worth of video content (24 hours) uploaded to its servers every minute and yet garners less advertising revenue than Hulu. The iPhone changed everything in regard to consumption of video on the go and now the iPad is shepherding in a new generation of smart mobile platforms that will enable video consumption to be richer and more flexible than ever seen. Content, conduit, and consumption are all expanding. What will the next phase of the video ecosystem look like and how will it be monetized? What metaphor will dominate how end consumers navigate the unfathomably large volumes of video available? Who will win in the new value chain?
