Overview

IGNITION: Future Of Digital is a two-day conference in New York City that explores the successful and emerging business models of digital media.

A major land grab is occurring for the digital consumer. Business models are rapidly changing. Technologies from mobile payments to micro-transactions are being developed as additional revenue strategies to advertising and paywalls. "Media" no longer encompasses merely content, but also commerce, payments, and platforms.

In a post-cash, networked, and mobile-enabled society, which business models work for digital publishers and digital companies?

IGNITION will bring together key stakeholders and executives to discuss what's happening now, what's coming next, and how it will affect your business.  The conference is produced by Business Insider, one of the fastest-growing digital-media companies in the world, and hosted by Henry Blodget, Business Insider's Editor-in-Chief and CEO.

We also ensure ample time to network with colleagues and make new connections with business leaders re-defining media. We invite you to register to attend, and join us at IGNITION.

Who's Coming:
