Global media and entertainment technology company, Backlight,
announced that its newly appointed CEO, Kathleen Barrett, will
speak at the fourth annual DPP Media Supply Festival taking place
May 30-31 in NYC.
DPP, the international network for media and technology, serves
content companies, cloud providers, integrators, and startups. Its
Media Supply Festival, of which Backlight is a sponsor, is the only
industry event that brings together customers and suppliers to
explore the latest in media supply chain technology.
In a session titled Greater than the Sum of the Parts—taking
place on day one of the conference—Ms. Barrett and DPP CEO Rowan de
Pomerai will discuss the trend of supplier mergers and acquisitions
and how media organizations with a variety of workflows can
benefit. Media technology companies, like Backlight, that have
grown their solution offering through strategic M&A with input
from their customers are uniquely positioned to service media
companies that are evolving every stage of their video content
lifecycle.
For the first time, DPP is opening the event to non-members.
Festival attendees can schedule a meeting with the Backlight team
to discuss how its products—iconik, Zype, Wildmoka, ftrack,
cineSync, Gem and Celtx—effectively address media workflow
challenges. Send a meeting request here.
