2015 PSP Annual Conference

Digital Science is sponsoring the 2015 PSP Annual Conference! As well as being sponsors Digital Science also has several speaking engagements within the conference program.

Phill Jones, Head of Publisher Outreach, is moderating a panel discussion, “Prospering in a Multimedia World: Publishers as Non Traditional Content Providers”, that Mark Hahnel, founder of Figshare, is participating in.

For both eBooks and Journals, publishers now have to consider the pros and cons of incorporating other content formats, i.e., video and other multimedia content, such as data sets and perhaps interactive content, to their traditionally static, text-based products.

Stephen Leicht, one of the founders of UberResearch, is also participating in a panel discussion titled “Disruptors/Innovators”.

True innovation at its core should disrupt the status quo but more importantly improve the value chain. How do you transcend your company’s culture to be innovative and create a more competitive environment? What is true innovation and how do you achieve it?
