There has been a shift in companies as information purchases by individuals are beginning to outstrip centralized content budgets. Librarian and information professional positions are being reassigned or eliminated and this is putting greater pressure on users to find their own sources. These changes are impacting how you build, sell, service and converse with this distributed customer base. We have assembled a panel of companies that are at the forefront of this trend. Topics will include:

• What is the profile of a typical buyer? Are they CEOs or sales people? What is the most effective way to reach these people?
• Is Pay-Per-View or subscription the expected way to reach this market? Can ad revenue make up the shortfall?
• How will your organization need to change in order to serve all these buyers?
• How are new companies taking advantage of this market shift?

Government has an increasingly ambiguous relationship with the information industry. While many publishers have differentiated their products by adding value to government content, agencies have become savvier players.

A panel of experts will debate what this means for all parties.

Technology can be a disrupter or an enabler depending which side of the fence you are on.

Leveraging technology to extend products or services has never been easier, but truly understanding the implications of embracing one technology over the other is a challenge. This panel will explore what technology is hot, what technology is passé, and what technologies are on the horizon that will be the future enablers or disrupters.
