About the Event

This event discussed Apple's newsstand and who owns consumer data; paywalls and piracy; and the opportunities for tablet and digital formats.

Themes

  • How has the inevitable growth of digital impacted on print circulations?
  • Is there any innovation left in print?
  • The model is to charge for content on the tablet - so is this a better bet than online ultimately for publishers?
    • Or is it just another unprofitable extension to the business?
  • How can publishers best exploit mobile and social media?
  • Are our research bodies keeping up with multi-channel publishing?
  • Should publishers be moving deeper into brand extensions including e-commerce?
