In addition to comprehensive analysis and insight into radio's economic forecast for 2012, this all-encompassing summit will include:
*Views from interesting companies in diverse categories such as gaming, digital commerce, and online digital video that aren't typically talking to the radio industry. These companies have some of the best perspectives on where the business is headed in terms of incremental and new revenue opportunities in the near term.
*A solid tutorial on where new opportunities are and how to integrate those opportunities without disrupting the day-to-day flow of business, as well as insights on where the industry is headed and how to optimize revenues in 2012.
*Outlook on political advertising in 2012: How big? How much? Which candidates and issues will lead the way? And how will digital impact the flow to radio?
Forecast 2012 is closed to the working press, and sessions will not be recorded. The only way to learn and absorb all the information delivered at Forecast 2012 is to attend. There are only 200 seats available, so early registration is encouraged.
Forecast is Radio Ink's eagerly anticipated annual radio industry financial conference -- the only one of its kind. Radio owners, CEOs, CFOs, group executives, managers and Wall Street analysts gather to discuss the state of the radio industry and predictions for the coming year. Participants hear about current and upcoming trends and opportunities, and meet the trendsetters of tomorrow.
Each year after the conference, Radio Ink invites the 40 Most Powerful People in Radio to pick up their plaques and join us for cocktails in their honor. The 2011 40 Most Powerful featured more new faces than any time in the list's history, and Forecast attendees will get the exclusive opportunity to mingle with both new entrants and the perennials in New York's elegant Harvard Club. Only registered conference attendees are guaranteed invitations to the after-party. Attendance is limited to 200.
