PRODUCTION & DESIGN THEATRE TUESDAY 28 FEBRUARY


TIME SESSION TITLE


10.00 - 10.40


Print Paper, Print Digital


The digital space is not all doom and gloom for printers, as long as they see the opportunities in the new landscape and grasp them with imagination and courage. We hear from major players in print about how new business models demand changes in technique, in publisher relationships and in company culture.


11.10 - 11.50


Choosing your print partner


Despite the gloomy predictions of the naysayers, print is alive and kicking. But the print landscape is changing fast, value is being added, and printers are reinventing themselves. You need to know the new questions to ask.


12.20 - 13.00


Paper and magazine publishing - the offline perfect storm?


Publishers are seeking low cost digital media to improve profitability. Paper manufacturers are looking to ditch loss- making excess capacity and increase pricing to improve profits. Are we collectively heading for the perfect storm of low demand and expensive paper? ‘Out of the box’ thinking on print and paper for newsstand and consumer publishers.


14.00 - 14.40


Keynote Session: Apps - best practice


An expert guided tour with a former Apple executive through the app state of the art, covering the controversial area between ‘page turners’ and the all-singing all-dancing specially designed versions; insights into the tablet audience; new data management imperatives; new markets and business models based on tablets - a) for publishers and b) for non-publishing brands who are now becoming publishers - and much more.


15.10 - 15.50


Essential video workshop


Accounting for nearly 50% of all internet traffic, online video is big business and is becoming an integral part of the new content experience. What routes can publishers take to profitably enrich their sites with video that’s relevant and engaging, and delivered in a format accessible to a multitude of devices?


16.20 - 17.00


Three cheers for print


As the digital dust settles, we find more and more reasons why the value of print should be celebrated. What does it offer that the digital models don’t? How do they complement each other? What are the challenges the industry is facing? Is traditional print more or less effective for marketing your websites and getting the message across?
