Our speakers

David King, NetX

David has over a decade's experience in the Australian digital media industry. As a foundation employee at NineMsn in the ‘90s, he co-developed the portal’s initial E-commerce plan and helping drive the localization of the US MSN business, CarPoint. Since then he has also delivered and executed on online strategies for Virtual Communities, BP, St. George and Atari.

In his previous role in Corporate Strategy at Sensis, he was instrumental in developing an innovation pathway for the Yellow Pages and White Pages business units, and worked extensively on delivering emerging advertising opportunities across the web, mobile and interactive television mediums.

David has recently set up a new emerging media facility at NetX: St. Edmonds Lab. This helps clients navigate the opportunities presented to them in areas such as mobile, social media, gaming and virtual worlds.

Monique Talbot

Monique Talbot foundered Tempest Media at the peak of the dot-com era in October 1999, leaving her safe and secure job as the OzEmail Sales and Marketing Manager with a small amount of seed capital. She has survived the dot-com nuclear winter and outlasted many competitors to now successfully run the largest independent online media sales company in Australia. She now happily runs a staff of 24 with offices in Sydney and Melbourne and represents clients like Seek, Carsales, You Tube, eBay and Coles Online.

Monique doesn’t come from a traditional advertising background but brings her years of sales experience from OzEmail, Reuters and Yellow pages to run a sales driven organisation like Tempest Media. She holds a Phys Ed degree but has never taught PE but thinks this has helped her nurture many young people that have worked for her at Tempest. She drives her team to provide excellence in “out of the box” solutions for advertisers and enjoys the speed and pace of the changing online media landscape. Tempest has enjoyed 100% year on year growth the last 2 years and she doesn’t see any signs of slowing down yet!

A few stats for data driven marketers :

  • Tempest Media has over 12 million unique Australians in the Tempest network each month
  • Tempest serves over a BILLION ads each month to Aussie's
  • Tempest has sites that cater for advertisers of cars, jobs, houses, shopping, and many more.
  • Tempest has premium, high value CPM sites in the network
