YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki will return as the headline keynote speaker at this year’s VidCon, the annual conference announced today.
Wojcicki will join a veritable who’s-who of leaders in online video, virtual reality, gaming, television, social media, and more at the conference — to be held next June in Anaheim, Calif. Other bold-faced speakers will include Awesomeness TV CEO Brian Robbins, JauntVR CEO Jens Christensen, Otter Media president Sarah Harden, and MTV president Sean Atkins.
While VidCon previously announced that its Industry Track, for business-minded attendees, would comprise 22 seminars featuring executives from the Federal Trade Commision (FTC), Twitter, and eBay, it has now added 16 fireside chats and 18 one-on-one conversations with top innovators to this lineup.
“As the online and offline video worlds overlap and mix together, we’re spotlighting the leaders of today and tomorrow to give attendees a much clearer look into where the opportunities are now — and will be in the future,” said Jim Louderback, editorial director of VidCon’s Industry Track, in a statement.
VidCon says its 2016 event will connect more than 30,000 attendees, 400 top creators, and over 100 industry experts. Click here for more information about the Industry Track or to register, and check out the first group of keynote speakers and presenters in full below:
