HITS Spring: EIDR’s Choi Brings Standards Discussion

At the May 19 Hollywood Innovation and Transformation Summit (HITS), held at the Universal Hilton in Los Angeles, and online via MESA’s virtual platform, the MESAverse, Hollie Choi, executive director of EIDR, will connect the dots between sustainable growth and standards.

In the session “How Standards Lead to Sustainable Growth.” Choi will explain that while every for-profit organization is measured on their growth year over year, at some point sustainable growth can feel elusive, especially when you’re talking about massive scale, such as that in the entertainment industry.

How standards help ease the path toward continued growth will be her message.

“I’m frequently asked how to explain the need for EIDR to an executive decision maker,” she said. “The executive vision can seem to be entirely disconnected from the need for standards. In this session, I’ll help you draw the direct line from standards like EIDR — to achieving sustainable growth for your organization.”

The annual Hollywood Innovation and Transformation Summit (HITS) Spring event is the industry’s largest gathering of media and entertainment’s CIOs and top technology minds, bringing together the IT, data, and security communities of the industry. Held as a “hybrid” in-person and virtual event, those not in Los Angeles can attend via Zoom or the MESAverse, MESA’s virtual work environment for its members and communities to watch live presentations, network, and step on the stage to share opinions.

The MESAverse uses ICVR’s RendezVu, a proprietary, interactive 3D-world application that will allow for hybrid live and virtual events and regular day-to-day interactions that go far beyond video conferencing. Sign up today and create your avatar!
