Hi-looking for your help and input
My name is Jon Howell and I am the Sales manager for an event in the UK called Publishing Expo. It is in it's fourth year and the 2009 Expo looks like being the biggest yet with 120 exhibitors and 3,500 publishing executives attending the two days.

The reason I am a member of this group is to ask fellow members for your help and input for suggestions for our seminar programme for 2009
We are in the planning process for 2009 and whilst I have a large UK base to target for ideas and suggestions I am a big fan of looking outside our pond especially the US as you tend to be early adopters of new technologies/strategies and the UK normally follows.

So if any of you guys have the time and would like to put forward suggestions for topics covering any area of B2B publishing you have implemented already or are thinking of doing it would be great to hear from you. I would really appreciate and value your input
All seminars/workshops are FREE to attend.

Full details on the focus format of the event can be found at www.publishingexpo.co.uk The site for 2009 will be launched shortly but the 2008 site will give you an idea on the focus, format, flavor of the 2 days on the types of seminars we run.

Whilst the event is UK based and 90% of exhibitors and visitors are from the UK as the show has grown it has attracted interest from European, Middle and Far East and US/Canadian visitors and suppliers to exhibit. The 2009 show will run from February 11-12th at Olympia 2 Hammersmith West London so if any of you guys happen to be in the UK for any reason (not the weather that's for sure :) ) during this time why not pop along-it's completely free to enter and view all the seminars and walk around the exhibition.

Thanks for your time guys and I hope I havent infringed any rules- guidlines of the group-apologies if I have!
I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience
Kind reagrds

Comment by David Williams on August 12, 2009 at 6:13pm
After much thought my own view is to start charging for our own on-line content. Media businesses have been making their content available online for free since the inception of the internet, and time has proven this to be a crapulent model. Most of us need to start charging and make our content pay for itself. If we cannot do this then we deserve to fail. What we should not do is allow parasitic media to feed off our content for a fraction of the cost that it takes to develop.

ASBPE and the Medill School have released the complete report on their joint Digital Skills & Strategy research. This report contains 20 tables of data and more than 200 open-ended comments from respondents.

The research covers 16 digital activities, 16 digital strategies, 12 leadership parameters, based on a survey of 273 B2B editors. The results show that corporate digital training and publisher leadership are lacking, even as publications become cross-platform brands.

Final report on digital skills, training, and strategies research r...
