09:35 - Why doesn't supply chain go from glass to glass?

The phrase 'supply chain' often conjures up a defined set of workflows around content processing and fulfilment. But why don't we apply supply chain thinking to the whole media value chain, from production to distribution?

10:15 - Does security have to be so hard?

11:30 - Is interconnection the key to supply chain efficiency?

Manufacturing supply chains span many factories, companies, and continents. Content creation also involves many different companies with their own supply chains. So is interconnection the key to unlocking true efficiency in media supply?

12:10 - How small is big enough?

Sports and news broadcasters create, localise, and distribute content in huge volumes at very high speed. They're efficient and fast because they have to be. So what lessons can they offer to those making highly crafted long form content?
