DMLA & Visual 1st Announce Strategic Partnership and Cross-conference Ticketing Specials

The Digital Media Licensing Association and Visual 1st announce a strategic partnership aimed at their respective conference attendees to learn and network together. The two conferences will be held back-to-back in San Francisco later this year:

  • The IDMLC (International Digital Media Licensing Conference) will be held Oct. 23-24 (opening reception Oct. 22);

  • Visual 1st will be held Oct. 24 (pm + reception) and Oct. 25 (am + pm).

Why would IDMLC attendees benefit from attending Visual 1st as well? Leslie Hughes, President of DMLA, explains the benefits as follows, “Many of our IDMLC attendees not only seek to gain insights into today’s trending issues in media production, distribution and licensing, but they are also at the forefront of imaging technology innovations, which are explored in-depth at Visual 1st. Our partnership offers a great opportunity for our members and IDMLC attendees to also join Visual 1st sessions and mingle with various photo & video industry trailblazers that attend Visual 1st.”

Why would Visual 1st visitors attend IDMLC as well? According to Hans Hartman, chair of Visual 1st, “While Visual 1st focuses on educating photo & video executives and startups about the latest imaging technology innovations and business opportunities, our partnership with DMLA provides our attendees a unique opportunity to also dive deeply into licensing and monetization issues at IDMLC, hear from top experts about copyright law, learn about frontiers in generative AI, and network with leaders from companies like Shutterstock, Getty Images, Alamy, Amazon and more."
