I will create an EPUB event program guide that includes introduction videos from speakers/panelists alongside their written bio and headshot. The EPUB will also include short interviews. Does anyone have a link to a project they have worked on (or something similar) so I can share as an example to show to my team?

Consider the in5 plugin. There is a link to some customer projects:

Don't include videos in Interactive PDFs (unless you a link to an external site such as a YouTube video), use instead FXL ePub or InDesign's Publish Online. Alternatively the InDesign plugin (at extra cost) in5.

Why not? I believe I've had success with embedded videos.

Now that Flash is obsolete you can't reliably distribute an Interactive PDF which includes a video.

I am sure you have made your choice for good reasons, but to be honest... I'd do it in PDF instead. PDF is far more controlled in format and presentation, and everyone has a PDF reader even on mobile devices. EPUB's fluidity, lack of standardization among readers and readers being less common for most participants would all be hurdles.

But again, not to second guess your choices and needs. Just a thought.
