I caught up with Earl Hong Tai, Western Regional Director of Telefim Canada recently at the Fusion Venture Forum. In our interview he discusses the current opportunities to monetize the converging media world; compares film funding to that for new media ventures; and reveals trends in cross platforms projects. Earl suggested we explore three companies presenting at Fusion that Telefilm thinks are going in the right direction: HotRocket, Zeros2Heros (watch for an upcoming interview with Chairman, Paul Gertz), and Something Simpler - check out our exlusive interview with CEO Ian Bell.

At fundfindr.tv, we are fortunate to be able to share a window into the world of hot new ideas, ventures and products - now there is one that truly uses Windows - your Window desktop that is. One of our favorites recently is Gwabs, a video game that you play by powering up your icons and other desktop items before going into battle with a friend right on your desktop - the Fusion Forum judges also thought it had great potential, awarding it third place.

Join fundfindr.tv’s Danita Harty and Gwabs Executive Producer, Steve Bocska as they walk through a demonstration of Gwabs. Gwabs is one of the first commercial products coming out of the innovative group, Cambrian House.

Fusion Digital Media Venture Forum and was hosted by New Media BC with support from Telefilm Canada and the National Research Council of Canada and took place February 20-21, 2008. This forum proved that BC is a leader in the New Media industry. Over 20 new media companies pitched their ideas in two formats: either eight minute pitch with 2 minute Q&A for more advanced stage ventures or five minutes pitch only to numerous investors, and later presented demos of their innovations. Investors and well established CEOs also presented on a range of topics from financing innovation to entry through to exit strategies. A most notable keynote speaker was Adeo Ressi, the founder of The Funded. Watch for his full interview coming soon.
