VITAC CMO John Capobianco Among the Conference’s Featured Speakers

Streaming Media West logoCaptions continue to expand well beyond traditional television, reaching new audiences every day via screens, tablets, and smartphones. With an hour of video uploaded to YouTube every second, and 85 percent of Facebook video viewed without sound, companies have taken notice as content providers seek every competitive edge in the battle for viewership. Accessible online video is the key to reaching – and expanding – audiences.

John Capobianco, VITAC’s chief marketing officer, will discuss this and other topics as a featured speaker at next week’s Streaming Media West 2018, a leading online and business technology conference.
