Conceived in an effort to create a high level forum for discussing the transformational forces in our changing entertainment industry, TheWrap's second TheGrill -- this spring in Tribeca -- has brought together a community of leaders from across the entertainment economy from disciplines including media, entertainment, finance and technology.
