Myles Peyton - Total Immersion
Nick Brown is co-founder of Crossplatform, one of the leading re-sellers of AR from Total Immersion.
Since
its inception, Crossplatform has been involved in a variety of
commercial projects with clients ranging from Paramount Pictures; via
JC Decaux; into Hugo Boss.
The company specialises in webTV, AR, DooH and content to mobile.
With
their extensive background in media, Crossplatform’s primary objective
is to help clients communicate with their consumers - in the right
place at the right time in the most appropriate manner - which could be
translated as ‘how can we make AR less of a gimmick and more of a
sustainable (read commercial) campaign toolset?’
Crossplatform is privately-owned with operations in the UK, Australia and India.
Nick
was previously CEO of a2a plc, a pioneer of webTV services, and prior
to that was Head of IT at Sky where he was involved in the design and
launch of the ubiquitous red-button!
“Standup” sessions
We’ll be hearing from @richardleyland @mamk and Phil Archer amongst others.
If you want to stand up and talk to audience with an ASK of your own See below:
How mixer* works:
This
network orientated event will start with a 10 minute keynote and then
be opened up to 30 second 'stand ups'. Anyone who comes to the event
will be eligible to take advantage of the stand up time, however to get
on the list you must have a completed profile on the mashup* site with
a picture, profile and web links. Once this is done you can let Emma (emma
mashupevent [dot] com) know you want to do a stand up.ONLY THOSE WHO PRE-REGISTER WITH EMMA WILL BE ALLOCATED A SLOT.
The
'stand up' slots are for you to describe what you NEED from the mashup*
community (e.g a new CTO, funding, advisors, mentors, consultants,
partners, etc). You have 30 seconds to speak (no slides, no demos) and
the 'crowd' then have a minute to respond to the ask. Note: you can
also simply ask a question rather than describing a fully-fledged need
as such. The idea is that these little interactions will trigger more
useful engagements after the 'stand up' session.
