Malcolm Read, executive secretary of JISC starts the conference proper with a witty and opinionated discussion on content.
"There is a lot of content out that needs joining up with what we do. JISC is working with MLA, want to work across and environment of content that is useful across education, health and culture. The driver behind this is an economy of scale, but also to improve access.
The NHS is a very good example of an organisation of its workers also involved in higher education, depending on where they are will depend on what information they can gain access to and you can imagine the frustrations of this and we want to break this down. Set up the strategic content alliance, that includes, BBC, Becta, BL, MLA, National e-Science, Centre and the NHS."
