2023 ANNUAL CONFERENCE 

The 2023 MFM Annual Conference, will take place May 22-24 in Los Angeles at the Loews Hollywood Hotel. The event will be highlighted by a keynote address and extended Q&A session with Jim Collins, the bestselling author of Good to Great and Built to Last. Collins was named by Forbes as one of the 100 best business minds on the planet.

General sessions feature prominent industry leaders such as Curtis LeGeyt, President and CEO of the NAB (National Association of Broadcasters), Stanley Pierre-Louis, President and CEO of ESA (Entertainment Software Association), and Danielle Coffey, Executive Vice President and General Counsel of the News Media Alliance, who will discuss and debate the challenges and opportunities facing the industry as a whole.

This year’s Annual Conference was also designed to make the most of participants’ time. Breakout sessions have been streamlined, offering fewer, but more impactful presentations to allow you to cover more ground in less time, not miss a single session, and glean practicable knowledge from each panel and presenter. With sessions such as “Attention and distraction: A sprint through changing entertainment consumption habits, and the financial implications for players in the industry,” “Dual Transformation:  doubling your chances for digital success,” and “The Future Landscape of Streaming,” MFM has gathered experts from across a wide range of relevant fields to empower attendees with insight, strategies, and tactics to face the future—all in the heart of the media and entertainment capital of the world. There will be 24 breakout sessions on every aspect of the industry and every financial discipline, all of which will qualify for CPE credits (up to 19 hours CPE).  

You’ll be in the center of where companies, concepts, and people come together to move the industry forward, to set the pace for what’s next. There’s never been a time when financial professionals have played such a pivotal role in this business. This will be *the* place to get a glimpse of what’s around the corner, build relationships that can help you solve problems, learn new ways to tackle tough issues, advance your professional career, make yourself more valuable to your employer, and boost your company’s bottom line.
