Please join us for a festive gathering and panel discussion NEXT TUESDAY, DECEMBER 9th, presented in association with Digital LA.

We're combining our peer group holiday gathering with this sure-to-be-informative series on the best digital content of the year. We'll be celebrating some of the best new and award-winning digital content of the year at this event featuring panels with top content creators, and execs from multi-channel networks. Plus, we will screen top episodes on the big movie screen at the historic Crest Theatre in Westwood. It's a great chance to schmooze and network as well.
