... vdonxt asia is back!

Positioned as an event for and about those who live by the promise of digital video, vdonxt asia promises to deliver several stimulating discussions around the subject. What are the monetisation strategies that publishers can look to? In the context of digital video, what are the issues faced by content creators, producers and advertisers? How have marketers' expectations of brand integration changed over the past year? In fact, do young marketers prefer working with agencies, production houses or independent creative talent? Will Indians really get around to paying for content? What are the kind of innovations possible in this space, be it in terms of content, technology or business? Can new entrants survive - and stand out - in a massive over-supply of digital video? What's Facebook's take on all of this? Or Google's, for that matter... And oh, where does BARC stand on the matter of measurement in the digital world? These are just some of the subjects that our speakers will discuss on stage.
