Poised between two worlds: Making sense of (and money from) the world of digital content

In this panel discussion, we focus on the five inter-related and mutually dependent areas (identified by the research and analysis organisation CapGemini) as being key to strategic success in the brave new world of digital content. These are: Customer Experience Management, Digital Insights, Intellectual Property Management, Digital Monetisation and Digital Media Management.

We also examine operating models, the processes, infrastructures and metrics and corporate governance that may be applied to devise the right digital strategy - one that works, is cost effective, keeps the customer coming back for more and makes money.
