Canadian Content and Asset Management (C-CAM) is on a mission to build and promote the practice of Digital Asset Management across all industries in Canada. The C-CAM group offers the experienced, and the new, an opportunity to be part of a community, develop relationships and promote learning / education, as we all face the challenges of growing libraries of digital images and video assets. The conference comes a year after the first ever Canadian DAM Professionals Networking lunch held in November 2016, with more than 70% of invited attendees attending. We welcomed almost 100 professionals working in advanced content technologies.

Join us for an interesting afternoon at the Spoke Club in Toronto where we have a jam-packed agenda focused on Digital Asset Management and will be introducing the newly minted Canadian Content Asset Management group. We’ll continue the conversation we started last year including workshops and panel discussions from the community. Speakers include WestJet, Holt Renfrew, the National Centre for Accessible Media and Rogers Communications. Stephanie Lemieux will share her renowned insights on making metadata and taxonomy work, and we’ll also hear from Shawna Newbery on how the Best Brands are Built on DAM. We have a practical workshop on Getting Started with DAM, and another on tips and tricks for using the Digital Asset Management Maturity Model.
