We connect the ecosystem of media executives, startups, digital business owners, investors, accelerators and incubators to share their experience and learn from each other. Learn from the pitfalls and the success stories.

Stage Content / Our topics
Data
Data is about monetisation and consumer rights. Who collects and who owns? Where does a media company see its place?
Which business models will generate the relevant data? Who are the startups can generate the data for media companies?
Media companies are also looking to collaborate with players in different markets to strengthen their resources and improve the usage of their data.
Personalization, filter bubbles and audience segmentation
Personalization is a hot topic but what is really behind? Personalization is not a silver bullet to grow revenues nor increase engagement let alone does it improve quality for the reader ending up in a filter bubble or seeing same irrelevant ads over and over again . With a lack of relevant user data personalization is in best case addressing a minor share of a publishers readers, often those who are already engaged.
Our speakers will showcase use cases and discuss the current and future opportunities for publishers to use available and relevant data to increase engagement, improve ad targeting and grow user generated revenue.
Diversification
Media companies are expanding and branching out into new areas of businesses for which they need to partner with new solutions and find business models that support their current businesses.
At the same time content is king again and after outsourcing production the content production is moving in-house again.
Startup Corporate Collaboration, Mergers & Acquisitions
Partnerships | Cooperation | Investor Perspective | Incubators & Accelerators
There is no silver bullet to make a partnership between corporates and startup work but many ways to learn which path may be best choice for your own company. Discuss and connect to the players who have done it to find the best match according to your strategy.
