FT Digital Media and Broadcasting Conference: Lessons from the Digital Frontier
Monday March 9, 2009 - Tuesday March 10, 2009
Millennium Mayfair Hotel London
44 Grosvenor Square, Mayfair
London, England Get Directions
"The early period of experimentation is over.

We can see some of the things that have worked and some that have failed. Digital revenues are becoming a more material revenue line for many media companies - it is the new reality people are dealing with, though a harsh reality for some.

Where does the digital frontier lie in 2009?

What are the threats and opportunities facing the media industry in 2009 and beyond?

What lessons can be learned from the pioneers working at the digital frontier?

The FT Digital Media Conference presents a two-day programme of speakers - innovators and business leaders from the world's most influential media companies - who have been to the digital frontier and have come back with the answers."

Speakers include:
- Jeremy Darroch, CEO, BskyB
