Max Dunn Interview

This week, Max Dunn, President of Silicon Publishing is our featured DAM News interviewee.    Silicon Publishing are developers of a Web to Print tool which is integrated with a number of different DAM products, as such, Max has considerable experience of working with a lot of DAMs and seeing what works (and equally importantly, what does not).  He makes a number of great points in his response to our questions.  The following, in answer to the question ‘How do you describe Digital Asset Management to others?’
