In a few weeks QBank invites you to an event dedicated to Digital Asset Management (DAM). Our vision with DAM Day is to inspire you with the possibilities of DAM and how to take care of your digital assets.

A fundamental driving force behind digitalization is to make life easier for people. We want to navigate information more efficiently, stay in contact with our friends and colleagues at all times and spread our ideas across the world. That’s great, but what if it’s not that simple? What if it actually makes life harder instead of easier?

April 12-13, 2016 Facebook had their 7th almost-annual developer conference F8 at Fort Mason, San Francisco. I was invited to join this two-day event and numerous other meetups, connected to Facebook in some way.

At QBank we’ve had the possibility to upload media directly from our Digital Asset Management (DAM) to Facebook for quite some time now and the integration is getting better and better all the time. But Facebook is so much more than cute pictures of cats and other people's children, food and gym-habits. Mark Zuckerberg started off the first day with a keynote talking about the roadmap for the next 10 years, where video, virtual reality, artificial intelligence and connectivity was the big points.

Turns out that people really like print. Gutenbergs old invention dating back to 1436 is still going strong. Who would have guessed this in an almost all digital world where everyone stares into a smartphone or tablet?

Our new product manager Christian shares his insights to the future of DAM and how QBank will stay ahead. He also shares his top tips for working with DAM!
