A Conversation with Col Needham

Type Panel → film panel
Venue: Austin Convention Ctr (Room 16AB)
About: SXSW aims to bring to light the fascinating origins of the go-to database, IMDB.com. As definitive and important as the site has become in the world of film and entertainment, surprisingly little is known about its visionary founder. An early adopter of the Internet's burgeoning potential, Needham developed his essential site from a simple spreadsheet into an established online stalwart, with over 57 million unique visitors each month. More recently, its implementation of digital video hosting and streaming has secured IMDb's reputation at the forefront of the savvy cinephile's online experience.

Speaker Info: Col Needham (Founder/Managing Dir, IMDB.com), Eugene Hernandez (Co-Founder & Editor in Chief, indieWIRE)
