MEDFORD, N.J., July 6, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Streaming Media announced this week that Evan Shapiro, self-described "media cartographer" whose incisive data presentation, analysis, and commentary is mapping out the future of the streaming media industry and overall entertainment sector, has signed on as host and MC of the next Streaming Media Connect virtual event, which runs August 22‒24.

"Evan proved a galvanizing presence at Streaming Media East 2023," remarked Streaming Media VP & Editor-in-Chief Steve Nathans-Kelly. "His standing-room-only 'YES, AND…' closing keynote typified the transformative effect his insightfully curated media industry data, potent visualizations, and no-holds-barred analysis is having in our industry. Even if it's not always what we want to hear about where we are and where we're going, it's what we need to hear. The only thing better than following Evan Shapiro's sharp and incisive daily LinkedIn posts is catching him live. Evan will be a great addition to Streaming Media Connect, elevating our already star-studded program to the realm of must-see TV."
