Smart Content is a new term that applies to what we used to call
the “digital” supply chain and how machines/data/artificial
intelligence will impact business processes moving forward.
Smart Content is technology and data integrated into the
content itself.
Smart Content enables companies to leverage new content intelligence tools to streamline
their productions and supply chains, while gaining unprecedented marketing data and
analytics about how their content is being consumed.

It's how data, metadata and identifiers are being embedded; how tracking and recognition
software are being written and coded; how storage and archives are using new tools to

the tremendous amount of user feedback, once our media & entertainment products have
been delivered into the consumer’s devices/living rooms/ ecosystems.
With content advisors comprised of thought leaders from movies,
television, sports, advertising agencies and other content holders
dedicated to the 2nd screen industry, the Society highlights thought
leadership and innovation as the 2nd screen continues to proliferate in
