"It has to work out of the box!" — Exploring newsroom and UX media tech innovations at IBC 2024

The DPP was hosting its own breakfast, drinks and dinner events in Amsterdam in September 2024. And during our trip to the Netherlands we also caught up with members at the yearly IBC conference to discuss the major industry trends, including those in newsroom innovations, empowering creators and engaging users — three topics DPP Technology Strategist David Thompson is researching in his latest Demand vs Supply report exploring how industry vendors are responding to customer needs.

We also hear about supply chain trends, hear from two experts who have both experienced large trade shows as buyer and supplier, and ask if gender diversity has actually got worse at this year's conference?
