BOOMING YOUTH MEDIA MARKETPLACE


The panel will cover discuss such trends and topics as:


*How the market for children?s entertainment videos expanded to more than 50,000 choices online according to recent web searches.


*Why the so-called ?edutainment? video industry now reaps $ 500 million annually.


*What will power the electronic games industry to be five times more pervasive by 2020 ? with an installed base of electronic game devices (excluding PCs) growing from 415 million to 2.6 billion.


*How social changes in family households influence media choices ?recent statistics show that only 7 percent of families consist of traditional households where only the husband works, 14 percent account for families of dual income parents and the rest are classified in ?other? categories reflecting the rise of single parents and other living arrangements.


?The rise of ?Generation C? where content, social networks and new technology empower youth to multi-task and tune into multiple media choices at the same time.
