“In this presentation I’ll draw on experience and case studies from my work at Digital Arts Network where I mostly work on large scale site redevelopments. I’ll share the tools we’ve created along the way such as the ‘Governance is awesome’ worksheet and the ‘What content goes where?’ workshop format. All in an effort to help our Agency’s clients have fun with their shared endeavour to create great content, prepare it for go-live, and support it from then on.”
