The Annual Queer Media and Entertainment Conference
(Q-Me Con) premiered in New York City in April 2006 and is the first-ever multi-day conference specifically designed for queer industry professionals working in, or looking to break into the media and entertainment business arenas.
The Q-Me Con NYC 2008 Women's Summit is a weekend-long forum featuring engaging seminars and networking events with the intention to empower queer women seeking to network and educate themselves in how to get their authentic, diverse voices and images OUT into the massive media-sphere.
Q-Me Con was created by Punkmouse, a NYC-based queer media and entertainment consulting group, founded in 2005 by veteran media and marketing mavericks Jennifer Howd and John Baez.
Q-Me Con NYC 2008 Women's Summit events will take place at various venues throughout New York City beginning Friday, May 9th thru Sunday, May 11th. Please check the website for location announcements and updates.
The digital revolution unlocked many doors to media & entertainment distribution by putting more power into the hands of the people, however, there is still a noted lack of authentic female voices – especially Queer female voices, both in front of and behind the scenes. The Q-Me Con NYC 2008 Women's Summit aims to change this!
Q-Me Con has assembled some of the leading media outlets, directors, producers and creative content makers, noted programmers, and numerous representatives from traditional and alternative media & entertainment distributors. A wide range of LGBTQ and LGBTQ-targeting companies and outlets will be represented throughout the Q-Me Con NYC 2008 Women's Summit.
