If you were starting a new publishing company today, what would your business model look like? How would it differ from what you are doing now . . . and why?

• What would be your goals?
• What would be your obstacles?
• What would be your new opportunities?

New technology shouldn’t scare you away from new opportunities. You know how to develop content and find new ways to deliver, interact with, and distribute that content. What should you do yourself? What should you hire out and how should you manage the process of change? Come, join digital guru Brett Sandusky in a discussion about changing how we think about new technology, our products, businesses, and solutions. This event is sure to be valuable to anyone in the business of creating, making, and/or distributing content.
