OTTAWA – As it marks its 20th anniversary, Prime Time in Ottawa will embrace screen based media ‘thriving in a time of change’ as the key theme at this year's conference scheduled for March 4 – 6, 2015 at the Westin Hotel in Ottawa.
Produced by the Canadian Media Production Association (CMPA), the conference continues to be the leading national networking event for prominent professionals from across the industry eager to be on the forefront of content evolution.
Top media leaders, including Bell Media president Kevin Crull, CBC EVP of English Services Heather Conway, Blue Ant Media CEO Michael MacMillan, and eOne Television CEO John Morayniss, will discuss ‘Let’s Talk TV’ and their strategic responses to regulatory and marketplace changes. Media experts will also explore new opportunities in online production; accessing the U.S. marketplace; international market intelligence; growing, monetizing and migrating audiences; building sustainable businesses; and structuring mutually beneficial partnerships across content platforms.
“Our industry faces the potential of unprecedented change given our regulatory environment, and is already experiencing both disruption and expanding possibilities in content production and distribution to meet evolving consumer demand”, said CMPA president and CEO Michael Hennessy. “In these exceptional times, producers and broadcasters are compelled to innovate in order to find new opportunities to grow. Prime Time will focus on thriving in a time of change, building businesses and audiences at home, internationally and on multiple platforms to keep Canadian content competitive and Canadian businesses strong.”
