Marketplaces 2010
The Local Vertical Opportunity
March 22-24, 2010
Sheraton San Diego Hotel & Marina
San Diego, California
Marketplaces is the BIA/Kelsey conference that focuses on the fast growing opportunities in local verticals. Since we first introduced Marketplaces in 2007, new social and mobile applications and functionality have dramatically changed the end game in the space. It isn’t (only) about classifieds and coupons anymore. Indeed, in some ways, Facebook, user reviews, video clips, blogs, dynamic offers, iPhone apps, pay-for-performance and leads management software are as important as traditional advertising.
More than half a billion dollars have poured into the vertical opportunity. At this conference, you’ll learn why. Attendees will hear from and meet all the important players in Marketplaces—the portals, search companies, verticals, promotion and coupon companies, Yellow Pages, newspapers, city guides, hyperlocal, the money people and more.
If you have a vested interest in making money in or from online verticals, you
need to be at Marketplaces 2010.

- Emerging technologies affecting broadcasting: home networking, 3D-TV, media DVRs, interactive TV, Internet radio
- Over the top (OTT) video — fad or future? Should stations participate?
- The state and direction of HD radio
- Consumer and social trends most affecting the media business
- Staffing in a multi-platform world
- The impact of consumer electronics on local broadcasters
- The new DTV networks seeking distribution and the models and programming that are working
- Sales, sales, sales — how to generate new revenues, old revenues, more revenues
- Credit markets, rising stock prices, impairment and M&A
- Local station valuation trends
DSB focuses on the topics most important to broadcasting executives and the ones that will drive business in 2010. Attendees will walk away with a practical and ready-to-go plan on how to respond to the underlying dynamics driving the shifting marketplace.
