C21's FutureMedia takes place at the British Film Institute on December 3 as part of Content London, our three-day celebration of the world's best entertainment. This year's event puts digital originals front and centre, showcasing the hottest talent emerging from the online world and the firms helping shape it.
The explosion of the YouTube channels universe has prompted a parallel proliferation of companies keen to help next generation content creators build their fan followings, brand recognition, skill sets and revenues.
Traditional media has fallen over itself to invest in so-called multi-channel networks in recent years but the space has advanced so fast that the term no longer adequately describes the vast array of production, talent management, distribution and technology specialists which inhabit it.
C21's FutureMedia 2015 will shine a spotlight on those at the heart of this revolution – the new breed of 'digital first' innovators in an environment where audiences often dwarf those of established television channels.
