Mitch Kanner, Founding Partner, 2 Degree Ventures

Mitch Kanner

Mitch Kanner has been a connection point between entertainment, advertising agencies, brands, and creative talent for two decades, as evidenced by Mitch's inclusion in the book Madison and Vine where Mitch was described as “one of the earliest leaders and architects of the space" and his notable Rolodex which was voted number five in the advertising business by AdAge which said “...everyone knows him, and he knows everybody".

In January 2005 Mitch formed Two Degree Ventures LLC, after serving as President of the Brand Group for The Firm, and a founding partner of Integrated Entertainment Partners LLC.  Mitch has carved out a unique niche around the strategic marriage of entertainment, emerging media platforms, and consumer brands. The results this year have yielded a new digital content model around global entertainment relationships with MSN.

Mitch spent 8 years with Jim Cameron's Digital Domain where he created the most significant visual and digital effects operation serving the production of television advertising, prior to that. Before the creation of Digital Domain, Mitch was a well noted agent, primarily representing commercial film directors.  Mitch is also on the Board of Directors at VCU Adcenter in Richmond, Virginia.
