The Mashable Media Summit, celebrates trends in technology and media, and explores the evolution of social media. Research shows that today more than 66% of adults are connected to at least one social media platform. As demand continues to rise for these platforms, they are evolving beyond content curation and becoming creators of content, as well. We now must ask: are social media companies becoming simply a new breed of traditional media companies?
At this year's Mashable Media Summit, Jessica Bennett, executive editor at Tumblr, and Dan Roth, executive editor at LinkedIn, will join Mashable's community manager Meghan Peters onstage, to discuss the rise of social media sites at publishers.
Held on Nov. 2 at the TimesCenter in New York City, the Mashable Media Summit is a one-day conference that will explore the latest innovations in the space and the future of journalism. Plus, you'll have the opportunity to network with high-level executives in many industries and mingle with Mashable staff. As in previous years, this event will sell out, so get your tickets now.
Other influential speakers joining the summit include Alexis Ohanian, co-founder of Reddit, Kay M. Matadi, head of entertainment at Facebook, Bonita Stewart, vice president of Americas Partner Business Solutions at Google, David Carey, president at Hearst Magazines, Joan Walsh, editor-at-large at Salon, and Tom Bedecarre, CEO of AKQA.
