The good and bad side of digital

The Nedbank Digital Edge speaker lineup is an impressive one this year. Leigh Andrews spoke to Lucia Maseko, John Gevisser and Glenn Gillis to find out what they're looking forward to the most. This year's event is taking place on 9 September at the Sandton Convention Centre. What should publications do when a horrific event is live-streamed or posted to social media? Louise Marsland investigates what editorial policies were taken during two recent tragic events: the Bangkok bombing, where a survivor Periscoped the aftermath, and the Virginia shooting of two journalists live-on-air with the gruesome video posted to social media by the gunman. Don't say goodbye, say aloha! Danette Breitenbach spoke to Ken Varejes who is leaving Primedia Unlimited to pursue other opportunities in the media and marketing industry. Bizcommunity has partnered with Millward Brown to conduct 'Insights2020 - Driving Customer-Centric Growth' - aimed at helping business leaders decode how insights and analytics can help drive business growth.
