Jim Louderback is general manager of VidCon. Starting in 2010, the multi-genre online video tech conference has become the world’s largest celebration of digital creators and online video.

In this in-depth conversation, Jim reflects on starting his career by building computer systems for big companies, and shares the story of how he “fell into media accidentally;” discusses being CEO of Revision3 and what the motivation was for Discovery to acquire the channel in 2012; and explains his plans to expand VidCon’s reach by making their events global.
