This man is part of a duo with Emmanuel Libaudière, who has been organising Tech Entrepreneurship & VC conferences for the past 6–7 years. His company is called Martech & Finance, and organises among other things, the Capital-IT conference.

A new format of the conference is coming up this year. Interesting stuff. Give it a try.

3GSM: they were all there

Download movie (.mov)

I wanted to get this video out on the web as quickly as possible after the end of 3GSM. In this 15 min sequence, you'll see short 30 sec to 1 min interviews with about a dozen people who were kind enough to speak to me in front of the camera.
I edited a bit the order of the people, in order to make your experience more fun. I still have lots of footage, and those chats that lasted more than 1 minute will make their way into another compilation at some point.

Most people here answer 1 or 2 very simple questions : why are they here at 3GSM, and what has caught their eye so far. It's a good mix of entrepreneurs, VCs, corporate people, investment bankers and consultants. I hope you like it.

Now after almost 20 posts this weekend, I'm going to go easy the rest of the week as I really have a hard one coming up.

3GSM: cocktail at the Streamezzo booth

Thanks to Streamezzo, and to its CEO, Stéphane Roder who makes a cameo appearance, we had a nice taste of Spain during the 3GSM, with 2 flamenco dancers, a singer and a guitarist…

That was Wednesday, just the first of all the parties we attended that day.

3GSM: a chat with Patrick Parodi, chairman of the Mobile Entertainment Forum

And surprise, in this video, Patrick tells us he is no longer with PacketVideo Network Solutions, an Alcatel company, but that he has joined a new startup, backed by Accel & Sequioa Capital, aiming to bring to the mobile medium what has been mising so far: advertising.

And you will even get a preview demo here… Isn’t this camera always in the right place ?

And of course, since you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you know that Patrick is the chairman of the industry association, the Mobile Entertainment Forum.

At Palau Muxio, an amazing 17th century palace in the Barri Gotic, where Real NetworksReal Networks was hosting its party. Some of us decided it was time by midnight to have some real fun after 3 hard days of work…

RSS (I think I'll stop the numbers): meet John-Paul Lepers, journalist with a grain of salt

Download movie (.mov)

John-Paul is a very well known French journalist, covering both international & domestic affairs, with a political twist onto everything. I first introduced him here.

His book was released only 2 weeks ago, and with virtually no TV apperance, his book has had 4 reprints (over 44,000 copies), and is already in the top 20 of book charts here in France… His blog is at johnpaullepers.blogs.com and makes use of video as well !

Emery was kind enough to create a teaser for this interview, as he joined us for a coffee on Place des Vosges, where we used Martin’s FON connection to the Internet…

vpod.tv on Europe1 radio yesterday

We only get a 4 minute sequence in the whole show, so I'm just linking to their site (and hence I hope not infringing on any copyright) [Thanks to Alex Schmidt for the link]. It's about at the second minute...:

I posted the video of our side of the interview last week with Nick, but for your pleasure here it is again:

In the interview they took the audio track from this video post:

 

RSS #067: meet Blake Krikorian, CEO Slingmedia

Download movie (.mov)

OK, enough is enough. I’ve been posting way too many videos in French on this blog. And I’ve told you I have many many more in stock a number of times. Actually time is a key issue in managing videos.

Our tool at vpod.tv now automates many of the things I used to do by hand, and publishing videos is becoming almost a pleasure; still a few things to iron out…

So today, I bring you the one and only Blake Krikorian, co-founder of Slingmedia. I’m sure you’ve heard of them. These guys sell a little SlingBox that sits next to your TV set, and that allows you DYNAMICALLY to access all the content on your TV on any web enabled device in the world.

Blake for instance grabs a wifi connection on a plane, and watches stuff from his Tivo at home…

Let me know what you think, I just love all this ATAWAD thing …

This video was taped in Athens, at ETRE, in October 2005. You’ll love it, because that was way before they got all those great awards on their web site

Update: oh... and I forgot to mention that Blake is the co-founder & CEO of Slingmedia.

And he just raised a couple of days ago a cool $46.6m...
