After the resounding success of the Aug 14th Ypanels, we presented the second Ypanels with a vision to serve you once each quarter with the highest quality of content and domain-specific networking for all professionals.

We had a distinguished set of panelists and participants for our second Ypanels. Following an hour of networking and hors d'ouvres, we had two parallel panels:
  • Digital Convergence in the Home
  • Career Spotlight: Flying through these turbulent times

Ypanels Event Itinerary:

  • 6:00 - 7:00: Registration, Networking, Hors d'ouvres
  • 7:00 - 8:30: Panel Discussions and audience Q&A
  • 8:30 - 10:00: Networking
Digital Convergence in the Home

For over a decade, PC makers have wanted to take over your entertainment systems at home. With more horsepower, software-based video compression and broadband connections they seem destined to succeed.

Microsoft and a number of hardware manufacturers have introduced many new products, but are their solutions ready to entertain you?

  • What are the remaining business, regulatory and technical hurdles?
  • What kind of entertainment content are you really looking for?
  • How will existing Cable & Satellite providers deal with this competitive channel?
  • Beyond Content, are consumers also demanding:
    • Audio video distribution
    • High speed home networking
    • Resistance from Cable & Satellite providers

Our list of panelists includes:

  • Shri Dodani, Business Development, Broadband Products, Intel
  • Suhas Patil, Founder and Chairman Emeritus, Cirrus Logic
  • Harshul Sanghi, GM, Business Team, Philips Set-Top Boxes
  • Sheridan Tatsuno, Principal, Dreamscape Global
  • Avideh Zakhor, Founder of TruVideo

Career Watch: Flying through these turbulent times

This multi-disciplinary panel will address compelling issues such as:

  • How do I make my work visible and survive any corporate downsizing?
  • Good time to get an MBA, or get a degree in Law, or teach for a few years?
  • What is the value of networking these days? How do I go about it?

Our list of panelists includes:

  • Kannan Govindarajan, Sr. Architect at HP Labs
  • Wendy Hansen, Associate Director, MBA Admissions, Stanford GSB
  • Cindy Jennings, Assistant Director, MBA Admissions, UC Berkeley,
    Haas School of Business
