Futurist Gerd Leonhard’s presentation on the Future of Content & Telecom at the eComm Conference in San Francisco.

Overview: Imagine a world where unfiltered and limitless access to content is bundled directly into your access to the networks. A world where ‘your cloud’ holds all kinds of content, your social network connections, your community, and your context (i.e. meta-content), your meta-data and your interaction-trails, and where access to all of this is feels-like-free, legal, always-on and fully mobile, on any and all platforms. This is the future we are heading into, and telecoms, content-owners and brands / advertisers must forge entirely new partnerships. We are starting to see content creators and rights-owners aborting their long-standing quests for total control, and instead looking to build their audiences and share revenues. So where is this trend going to take us, what do we need to do in order to turn content (music, video, TV, news, games, books…) into a new and truly growing business that is really web-native, where are the big opportunities for telecoms, operators, social networks and rights-holders, and what will the new business models look like? In this context, Gerd also addresses topics such as the flat rate for digital music, ISP/Operator + Content bundling examples in Europe and Asia, copyright 2.0 and the future of content commerce, the shift from control-economy to attention & trust economy, the latest developments in next generation advertising, and the growing economic power of those ‘new generatives’ (> Kevin Kelly)…”

What I found interesting was the mention that Kentucky Fried Chicken is the largest music distributor in Malaysia. Crazy…
