My job in five
David Martin is a senior consultant at Atwood Tate

What do you think technology will look like in five years’ time within the publishing industry? The technology sector changes so quickly that it would be quite hard to envisage what it will look like in five years’ time. I think more content is going to be pushed onto our devices (mobiles, iPads, etc) as more of a primary source of usage. Publishers will need to adapt accordingly.
