The UK Media sector & the Global Media Business: Global or bit part Player? June 13, 2007

Part of the series of Oxford Media and Communications Seminars will be led by Dr. David Levy, Associate Fellow in Media and Communications. "Their aim is to join up the worlds of policymakers, regulators and academia to tackle some of the most difficult regulatory, business and strategic challenges facing the sector."

"What are the strengths & weaknesses of the UK in the Global Media & communications Market? Are we doomed to be caught between the twin poles of global (US) content and local content in most markets or are there real opportunities for UK media brands either to be real global players or occupy a space between the US & domestic offers? What are the successful models for UK players in the global market? How are they adapting to the challenges of converging technology, rapidly changing consumer behaviour and the search for new revenue streams? And what are the lessons for the rest of us?"
