Digital Magazine Media 2.0 Conference, 14-15 March 2007 Hanover, Germany.

Never before has digital media played such a fundamental role in successful magazine publishing. It is here and here to stay, but as a publisher, how do you really master your strategies for digital success? The first global Digital Magazine Media 2.0 Conference, taking place at the Hanover Congress Centrum in Germany on 14-15 March 2007 will tackle these future issues. The two day conference is co-sponsored by CeBIT, the world’s largest trade fair for digital IT and telecommunications solutions, the International Federation of the Periodical Press (FIPP) and the German Magazine Publishers Association (VDZ).
