A MULTICULTURAL, MULTIPLATFORM WORLD

The theme of the 15th Annual Cultural Insights Forum is “Identity Matters: Be Relevant in a Multiplatform World.” Today’s consumers have more choice than ever before about when, where, and how to watch TV. As such, it is imperative for new advertising and content to resonate with these diverse and increasingly tech-savvy audiences. The day’s discussion will focus on how and why various aspects of identity—including race, psychographics, culture and common interests—play an integral role in effectively targeting and engaging today’s transcultural consumers. Our agenda for this year’s Forum will include research presentations, keynote speakers, and panel discussions featuring forward-thinking innovators from across the media spectrum who will frame the day’s conversation and set the tone for the future direction of our industry.

DON’T MISS OUR PANEL! (11:10am)

Panel: Audience Matters: Engaging Multicultural, Multiplatform Millennials

Multiplatform. On Demand. Social Media. New Media. Millennials make up a quarter of the U.S. population and everyone is trying to crack the code on what makes Millennials tick. In today’s fragmented media environment, how can you keep today’s diverse young viewers engaged with your content and message so they stay tuned in to you, turned on to your advertisers, and loyal to your brand? Understanding the role and importance of identity is of paramount importance to maintaining engagement with the inherently diverse, multicultural Millennial audience. This panel will explore how and why various aspects of identity—including race, psychographics, culture, sexuality, and common interests—factor in the creation and distribution of successful, engaging content for today’s multicultural, multiplatform Millennials.
