ABOUT #ABUdigital

#ABUdigital is conceived as a meeting space for digital dreamers aimed to inspire ABU members with the latest digital trends, tools and best practices to guide them to adapt into digital ways of doing things. This unique conference-slash-knowledge sharing event aspires to explore all things digital at the intersection where Technology meets Content and how it impacts broadcasters. Split into two parts consisting of a digital experts forum and specialised workshops, this event will look deeper into everything digital from digital strategies to digital storytelling on a wide spectrum of genres and themes relevant to the broadcasting industry. From inspiring case studies to stimulating discussions and networking activities, delegates will learn about the latest digital trends, solutions and opportunities to work with other broadcasters and experts from Asia-pacific and beyond. The programme is designed to allow participants to choose the topics, sessions and dedicated workshops that they find most useful to their work based on their own individual needs and personal requirements.
