Seminar: Calling All Stations – developing in a Multi-Platform environment

Date: Tuesday 3rd March, Hillington Park Innovation Centre, 9.00 – 1.30pm

Across the Digital Information Industries, platform innovation is changing the direction of the mobile and internet sectors. With a proliferation of innovation in devices, media players and other content receivers, there are now thousands of opportunities for consumers to access digital content.

The challenge for all companies or developers either distributing, creating content or developing applications is to create a strategy that will maximise the value from content transformation.

The second of our Digital Content Coffee Mornings brings together a leading panel of speakers from Nokia, Tern Digital, BBC and SMG who will outline the key challenges, roadmaps and business opportunities that lie ahead within the Multi-Platform Digital Media Market.

Following on from our seminar “Calling All Stations – developing in a multi-platform environment”, Mobile Web experts from Nokia will be holding a workshop for all web managers, designers, mobile application developers, digital media and marketing executives who are interested in developing a mobile web strategy for their business or service offering.
