Mexico’s Digital Media Revolution

As part of their Latin American Business-Building Initiative, the San Francisco Global Trade Council (SFGTC) is pleased to convene a symposium focused on Mexico’s explosive digital media marketplace.

SFGTC defines the “media industry” as firms engaged in the confluence of telecom/wireless, digital film and entertainmente, and the information services industry—including software, hardware, content development and services.

Is your business plan robust enough to address free video content, social networks going mobile, VOD and IP digital rights? Will top content, best features or price emerge as the winning strategy? What do Hollywood, Silicon Valley and Wall Street have to say about Mexico’s emergence as a player in this competitive marketplace?

Join us to hear two experts discuss Mexico’s digital revolution from both sides of the border. Explore concrete ways to be a part of it.
