Join us in Lexington, Kentucky for the 31st National Media Market, October 4–8, 2009
If you evaluate or purchase motion media, broadcast or digital rights, the Market is the premier event of our industry. You will find everything from award winning stand-alone titles to innovative delivery systems and proven educational technology intended to support your choices of educational video content.
Screenings will be held at the Embassy Suites, an all-suite hotel that offers spacious living rooms for setting up screening stations.
Market attendees will be staying at Griffin Gate Marriott Resort, Kentucky’s only four-star, four-diamond resort and spa. In addition, the Large Group Presentations Market Mania Clips and More and the opening and closing receptions will be held at the Marriott.
Screening
For four days 55 of the nation’s top quality educational media producers and
distributors offer on-demand previews of new releases, products and services.
Company representatives are available to discuss purchase options and license
agreements customized to the needs of your institution or agency.
Best of Show
The Market is an opportunity for exhibitors to introduce new programs and have them
evaluated by experts in the field. Attendees vote for their favorite program and
the Best of Show Award is presented to the
program which has received the most votes at the closing reception of the Market.
