MediaTel Group is set to host a full morning seminar on the ‘Future of Online’ in November, looking at the major issues facing the sector.
Panellists confirmed so far include Trevor Johnson, planning and strategy, EMEA at Facebook; Robert Horler, managing director of Diffiniti; and Khalil Ibrahimi, managing director of Unanimis, who will be joining chair Torin Douglas of the BBC.
The first session of the morning – focusing on trading – will examine areas such as online revenue growth, whether online is working productively alongside traditional media and if search exists outside of Google anymore.
Following a short break, the second session will ask the panel to debate the future shape of the industry. Some of the subjects up for discussion will include the possible deal between Google and Yahoo!, the strength of the threat Google poses to agencies, and online regulation.
It will also ask what the industry will look like in five years time and whether there will be further consolidation.
The event will take place on Tuesday 25 November, at One Great George Street, Westminster, London.
More information, including booking details, is on the MediaTel Group seminar site.
