Keynote announced for PPA Data & Digital Publishing Conference

With just one week to go until the PPA Data and Digital Publishing Conference, the PPA has announced that the keynote interview will be with Adrian Barrick, Chief Executive of UBM Built Environment and UBM Connect.

Adrian (pictured) is one of the most respected figures in publishing, having won multiple PPA awards for himself and his magazines. Perhaps most notably he was named as PPA Business Publisher of the Year in 2007.

The CEO of the PPA Barry McIlheney will quiz Adrian on how he has transformed some of B2B media’s biggest and most iconic brands into equally impressive multiplatform businesses spanning events, print and digital subscription titles, as well as information and data service products. Through a friendly yet lively interview, Barry will seek to gain a unique insight into the core strategies that have secured a strong platform for UBM to grow and thrive in the modern publishing era.

Adrian Barrick’s leadership has meant that UBM Built Environment has expanded globally and led the way in the digital publishing revolution, with digital and data services now delivering around 90% of their revenue. This, coupled with an audience reach of over 300,000 professionals in UK construction, makes Adrian Barrick a publisher few could fail to learn from.

This year's conference will take place at the Park Plaza Victoria Hotel, London, SW1 on Thursday 10 November, and will precede the 2011 Data & Digital Publishing Awards.
