Before the Internet was part of daily life, company websites were rare. Today, an online presence is a fundamental part of any business marketing strategy. With the mass adoption of tablets, smartphones and eReaders, publishers are faced with making the leap. To thrive, they have no choice but to make mobile a fundamental part of their plan. But how do you do this when resources are aligned to support print and web, and digital publishing requires money, expertise and time you don't necessarily have?

This presentation will feature four real-world examples of publishers (J'aime Lire Store, Milan Press, Réunion des Musées Nationaux, Egmont) who made the leap and successfully expanded their business without breaking the bank or necessarily hiring an entire workforce.

Both presentations will be held in the Tech Theatre, EC2.
