SAN JOSE, Calif., Aug. 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Quantum Corp.
(NYSE: QTM) today announced that Alex
Grossman, the company's vice president of media and
entertainment, and Janae Stow Lee,
senior vice president of strategy, will speak at the Flash Memory
Summit, Aug. 11-13, at the
Santa Clara Convention Center in
Santa Clara, California. Grossman
will chair the "Media and Entertainment Experts Roundtable" and
serve as a panelist for the "Flash in Studio/Broadcast
Production/PostStorage" session, and Lee will participate in the
"Women in the Storage Industry" panel.
"Media and Entertainment Experts Roundtable"
- Tuesday, Aug. 11, at 4:35 p.m. PDT
- Industry experts will discuss the current status of the various
media and entertainment market segments, where the bottlenecks and
issues are and what the future holds for the equipment and storage
industries, as well as for large and small production
operations.
"Flash in Studio/Broadcast Production/PostStorage"
- Tuesday, Aug. 11, at 8:30 a.m. PDT
- Panelists will discuss how the generation of much greater
volumes of content by geographically distributed production teams
is affecting storage systems and workflow — and what this ongoing
trend will bring in the future. Grossman will focus on the
important role that flash can play in media production as part of a
broader, multi-technology strategy.
"Women in the Storage Industry"
- Wednesday, Aug. 12, at
9:45 a.m. PDT
- Panelists will discuss why women are significantly
underrepresented in the technology industry workforce and
leadership and why so many efforts to change the situation seem to
produce few results. Participants will also talk about what makes
women choose to enter an area in which they are a small minority,
what challenges they face and what opportunities come out of
it.

"Flash can bring valuable benefits to content
creation workflows, particularly when implemented as part of a
broader solution utilizing additional storage technologies, all
aimed at optimizing the efficiency and productivity of the
workflow. I look forward to discussing how media production
facilities can best incorporate flash and intelligent hybrid
technologies into their storage environments to drive greater
efficiency and meet critical deadlines."
Janae Stow Lee, Senior Vice
President, Strategy, Quantum
"Recent analyst studies have
highlighted the aging population of skilled employees and the
implications for our innovation-driven economy. This makes it
imperative that the storage industry find more effective ways of
increasing women's participation in the workforce. I commend the
Summit organizers for highlighting this issue and am pleased to be
part of such an important discussion."
