Content Weekly By The CMA: 17th April

Your news and views from around the world of content marketing

Hi , I hope you're having a great week.

We’re now just two weeks away from our Content Breakfast event, which looks at the podcast industry. You’ll hear from award-winning podcast producers who will update us on the current state of the industry, as well as talk through how you can monetise your branded podcast. Tickets are limited to this event but available to all, with members of the CMA receiving a discount on their booking.

This latest edition of Content Weekly also includes a feature from Group CEO of SJR, Selena Cameron, providing steps brands can take now to prepare for the AI transition.

Lastly, we have an update on our B2B Summit. This will take place in London on 6th June and early bird tickets are now available to purchase. By securing your tickets now, you’ll be saving money ahead of the line-up being announced later this month.
