Make Smarter Content Decisions by Predicting What to License Next
Today’s entertainment companies must understand how consumers are engaged in content, and anticipate what’s next, to optimize their licensing strategies. Internal data and gut instinct must evolve to incorporate new inputs to the data-stack to make smarter content choices to ensure service success and competitive differentiation to attract and retain viewers. What this means is consumer insights, deep engagement data, and predictive performance metrics become integral to the data modeling process. This must also go hand-in-had with a faster way to fulfillment in a dynamically changing environment. Join our conversation as we talk about the modern-day consumer and how to best predict content performance before money exchanges hands, complemented by seamless delivery without the headaches.

Streamlining Media Accessibility with AI/Auto-Generated Transcript Metadata
Accelerate your Avid media production by leveraging intelligent metadata! MetadataIQ, an AI & ML solution that enriches Avid media assets by generating and indexing real-time transcripts with live and/or historical media content.

Using Zero Trust to Protect Intellectual Property in M&E
Intellectual property (IP) protection is vital to your bottom line. A leaked script, clip or game design can be disastrous to the success of any project. While today’s collaboration tools have made it easier than ever to exchange ideas and information—it’s also all too easy for deliberate and accidental data leakage to occur. Learn how applying a Zero trust methodology to data access and sharing can help safeguard your most vital assets and ensure they don’t accidentally or deliberately walk out the door.

Smart Supply Chain: Investing in the Links
The digital transformation that our industry is experiencing is driving investment in end-to-end efficiencies inside our supply chain. But with the increased investment there is a growing expectation from every link in the chain to provide better insight in the process, that ultimately culminates in the end-user of the platform. As data and processes become more efficient, more reliable, and more transparent, the opportunities to expand the linkage to the audience increases the bottom line. These experts discuss our renewed investments in evolving our supply chain into a software development-driven environment that keeps up with the increasing demand across business units for access to critical data that drives well informed decisions.
