Founder, Beet.TV

Since its launch in 2006, Beet.TV has been considered an essential media chronicle of the digital video revolution. Unlike conventional text-centric business trade publications, Beet.TV tells its stories with short, well-edited and informational videos. The videos break news, report on industry developments and spot the trends. Up close and personal, the videos provide unique insight into the passion and point of view of industry influencers. An influential, global audience consumes about 10,000 video views per day. The videos are viewed on Beet.TV and widely syndicated. Videos are produced at the Beet.TV studio in Manhattan, at industry events such as CES, DMEXCO, Cannes Lions, and Advertising Week. Many videos are produced at Beet.TV’s signature “leadership” events. Beet.TV covers many aspects of the industry including video advertising strategy; platforms for distribution and consumption; programmatic; web original entertainment and news; social media; devices; and many aspects of strategy around discovery, search and syndication. Most of the 200,000 video views occur off-site via syndication, the embeddable player, and other means. Videos are seen on AOL, TechCrunch, Twitter, the Huffington Post, Reuters Insider, Dailymotion, NASDAQ.com, and many other sites. Beyond the video and page views is a large, influential social graph with nearly 200K Twitter interactions and 250K retargeting impressions.
