Learn about multiscreen development with Realeyes’ own David Hassoun, John Crosby, and Jun Heider

The last few years have seen a steady upswing in multiscreen application development, and MAX has responded to this trend by providing developers, designers, and entrepreneurs with the best resources for learning how to rise to the top in this environment.

David, John, and Jun

Realeyes Media is pleased to announce that Jun Heider, David Hassoun, and John Crosby will be speaking at MAX! Be sure to check out the following sessions:


David Hassoun & John CrosbyVideo Player Development for Multiple Devices
