Envysion Announces 2011 Managed and Hosted Video Summit

LOUISVILLE, Colo., April 25, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- The second annual Managed and Hosted Video Summit will be held June 6 - 7, 2011 at the St. Julien hotel in Boulder, CO.  The Summit is the preeminent event to accelerate segment growth and speed of adoption of Managed Video as a Service (MVaaS) and hosted video solutions.  Focused on business development, the Summit brings together managed and hosted video players, industry partners, thought leaders and investors together to share ideas, shape this emerging market and drive the success of the segment.

Last year's sold-out event demonstrated the opportunities and viability of emerging managed and hosted video solutions. This year the Summit will focus on helping providers gain momentum in the space through innovative technologies, solution partnering and differentiated value propositions.

"Based on input from last year's participants, we've shaped and focused the content for the 2011 Summit to deliver the most relevant and useful information to our attendees. We're particularly excited about the addition of the case study/demo format for the managed and hosted providers, which will provide a great opportunity to see and hear about the impact of these solutions," says Carlos Perez, vice president of product and marketing for Envysion. "Registration levels are tracking higher than this time last year, so I urge anyone considering attending the event to sign up."
