Wednesday, March 12, 2008 from 8:30 AM - 9:30 AM (GMT)
Margaret Hodge MP, Minister for Culture, Creative Industries & Tourism will make a keynote address as NESTA and the UK Film Council formally launch the Digital Innovation in Film programme.
The pilot programme plans to team up film companies with innovation experts to exploit digital distribution and develop new business models. By demonstrating the benefits of the approach, it is hoped that other film businesses will benefit.
Join us for a panel discussion on the future of digital distribution including how to make businesses investment-ready; the changing modes of consumer behaviour; how film businesses are adapting to new technologies and the opportunities being created for rights owners.
Panellists include John Woodward, CEO of the UK Film Council; Howard Kiedaisch, CEO, Arts Alliance Media and Simon Danker, Director of Digital Media, BBC Worldwide. Chris Powell, NESTA’s Chairman will moderate.
Breakfast and registration from 8.00am with presentations starting promptly at 8.30am.
