Corporation ("Liberty") today announced its third annual NetLeaders
Forum 2008, a one-of-a-kind networking event bringing together
founders and entrepreneurs from around the country who have built
established internet businesses. In addition to facilitating
connections among established leaders from the interactive

entrepreneurs convening in the Denver area, home of Liberty Media.
The day's agenda features keynote Bill Gurley of Benchmark Capital
and speakers Jim Holland of Backcountry, Rich Barton of Zillow,

Michael Zeisser, Co-Chair of NetLeaders Advisory Group and Senior
Vice President of Liberty stated, "Liberty Media was born out of
long-term partnerships with the entrepreneurs who built the cable
industry. Today, we repeat that formula with the entrepreneurs who
are building the leading companies on the Web. We are proud of our
now three-year role through NetLeaders in promoting connections and
dialogue between some of the brightest minds now shaping the future
of this exciting industry." Based on the success of last year,
content and networking were significantly expanded for 2008. "The
enthusiasm and excitement for technology flowing through the
NetLeaders Forum was unlike anything I've seen in years," said

meeting of internet CEOs and entrepreneurs of this caliber and it
was a great experience." About Liberty Media Corporation Liberty
