Many will know Evan Shapiro as the official, unofficial cartographer of the Media Universe since Deadline published his first Media Universe Map.

It has since been adopted by businesses, executives, analysts, and colleges as the unofficial official representation of the map of media. Using his specific point of view, Evan charts the media’s future through his essays in the Media War & Peace Newsletter and with his change agency, ESHAP.

Evan was a hit at the RTS Cambridge Convention, coining “Disco Brothers” as the new industry name for Warner Brothers Discovery and his portrayal of the big tech companies as “trillion-dollar death stars”!

Shapiro is also an Emmy and Peabody Award-winning producer of TV, films, and podcasts, including Portlandia, This Film Is Not Yet Rated, Please Like Me, Comedy Bang Bang, Brick City, and Harmonquest.  He also serves as a professor at NYU and Fordham Schools of Business, as Board Chair for the non-profit educational enterprise One Diverse Industry, and co-host of the Cancel Culture Podcast.

After the presentation of his latest research, Sarah Clarkson, Head of Intelligence and Insight at Channel 4, will join Evan in conversation, followed by an audience Q&A.

Tickets include a complimentary glass of wine over which to continue the debate in the venue bar afterward.
