in each conference’s topic area, discovering their on-the-job problems, issues and concerns. We then find the very best speakers to

offer solution-driven content, as well as facilitating peer-to-peer networking at each event. Our events are not trade shows or expos,

although we do offer partnership opportunities to select vendors. We’re focused on the attendee’s needs entirely.

To overcome those challenges and ensure success a DAM Manager must bring to the fore three critical skills.

3:30 - 4:00 Case Study: Optimizing an Asset’s Value—Its ONLY as Good as Its Metadata!

Without the proper information associated with a piece of content it becomes inaccessible for future use and its future ROI is lost. Ensuring that assets and content are tagged appropriately and accurately is an essential function of stewards of an organization’s assets. This process starts with assessing all the pieces of relevant information about your content and developing a schema to ensure this tagging is done properly. Hear from one with experience about how to do this and how it could go terribly wrong.
