What's your current business and development partnering strategy? What is it and who does it? Is a business development activity happening in your company? What is your opportunity to jointly and mutually leverage value within your business?

These are just a few of the questions that Hal Josephson, President of MediaSense Inc., and today's guest speaker at the International Partnering Forum at VIDFEST, asks of his audience this morning, initiating the business "speed-dating" event that is getting set to commence here on Granville Island in Vancouver.

This year marks 3rd annual IPF, where companies from all over the world come to participate and, ultimately, where deals are made!

Hal has flown half way around the world to be here today, having had breakfast in New Zealand and dinner in San Francisco yesterday, we're happy he was able to join us for coffee this morning and provide his insight into the critical questions a company should be asking when developing business strategies.

Hal is also organizing upcoming PacRim BizDev events and the China Access ICT/Creative Industries Partnering Program this September in Beijing and Shanghai, which will focus on alliances with Chinese companies and provide strategic planning and marketing for international businesses.

Thank you to Dennis, Lynda and Kirstin from New Media BC and IPF sponsors
Canadian Heritage, PricewaterhouseCoopers, and Vancouver Economic Development. Let the dating begin and the deals get done! If you're reading this and you weren't a part of it, get yourself registered for next year - not to be missed!!

Your business deserves to be found.

Tell us about your project. We answer in English or French, and we travel anywhere in the MRC de Papineau.
