Peter Brack, executive in residence at Mucker Capital, a seed stage venture fund, will discuss his experiences taking established media firms into new markets and launching China-focused companies. Assessing and seizing opportunities, developing partnerships, and navigating political and regulatory shifts are among the topics Brack will explore.

Brack’s second firm, Redgate Media Group, reaches more than 100 million people in China through its television and outdoor advertising. Redgate merged with a listed company in 2012. Now based in Los Angeles, Brack is an active member of the internet and digital media communities in Los Angeles, New York, and China.
