A wonderful and friendly bunch of peers, all at the top of their game and all still facing the same challenges. Heartening and motivating. Thank you.
Emily Tippins | Chief Marketing Officer at Avantra


It's not often that as a busy marketer that you get a chance to spend some high quality time in the company of peers and go meaningfully deep into a real marketing challenge. The Challenge Forum is both interesting and challenging, and I would recommend it.
Dave Hughes | Head of Marketing at Ideal


Discussing challenges with your peers is so valuable to marketing leaders and something we don't do nearly enough! The TechPros session was a great forum for discussion on a topic we all care about.

Insights from a few industry leaders in the Accelerating Digital Innovation in Media and Entertainment eBook:

Data plays a huge part in decision making, whether it’s about what products to create, how to optimise our products, and how to win in the marketplace. We use a combination of data and research to inform decisions. It’s fundamental.
Mahesh Ramachandra
Head of Product, Digital Preschool, Entertainment One

The data drives the insight as to why our customers consume what they’re interested in, so that is key for us. It will be a vital part of our strategy across the coming years.
Jean-Paul Camelbeek
Chief Product and Customer Officer, Reach PLC

Everything is going to be much more personalised and targeted in the future. Discoverability is the biggest challenge of the OTT industry. The more services that come out, the more people don’t know what to watch. All of that will have to be very personalised based on data and that is why there’s definitely going to be the need to collect lots of it.
Rasmus Larsson
Product Director, Sports Businesses, Sony
