Change to Linear to interactive content – Panel by @BBC @CBSinteractive @MobileRoadie @indiavibes @inSingBuddy @msfd #dm11 #singapore

I had this very rare opportunity to be a part of the panel along with the biggest names in Media industry, the panel was moderated by Ralph Simon(Ralph Simon, Chairman Emeritus & Founder, Mobile Entertainment Forum – Americas and CEO of The Mobilium Advisory Group). We discussed on how we can combat the challenges of creating interactive content & the also how connected devices where eating off the pie of a user attention to content(television).
SingTel has the Insing.com story on how they are creating innovative technology to bypass the challenge of connected devices, infact Cheng Chuan Loo,( Chief Executive Officer, SingTel Digital Media ) spoke about “fifth screen” ! Yes ..TV,Computer,Mobile,Tab..& soon to come..Fifth screen.
Wendy (Wendy Hogan, VP and Managing Director, Australia and SEA, CBS Interactive) spoke about how CBS been pro-active in buying companies/media properties that connected to the audiences. She was talking about the necessity of taking mobile more seriously though.
To that our Mobile Roadie CEO, Michael Schneider said that he was looking to work with more companies in Asia & having regional languages is challenging yet important while creating mobile app.
Ralph was however emphasizing on Hyper-local content to be a game changer in Asian Market.
Phu(Phu Truong, Vice President, Commercial and Operations Asia, BBC.com) from BBC was all excited that he was moving in to Singapore from London, he told how i world is gonna bridge that gap soon for hyper local content with its launch set very soon.
My inputs on the challenges where to embed simple ways in content to enable user to use connected devices but at the same time, getting their involvement in the content. So it wasn’t about creating a technology ,it’s just about having elements of “interaction” within the content created !
Strangely enough the only Q&A session was shot at me by Mr.Prashun Dutt from Economist magazine who said that @Indiavibes is a really exciting stuff but how are we gonna monetize the whole thing !
Being from Kerala had some soft edge at the event, cos when i was introduced to he audiences the moderator did mention about God’s own country ! But the surprise about being from Kerala,is they never expected a commercial business from that part of the world.
Having said all that, the panel concluded with lines that Content will always be the game changer !
