Session 1: The Problem with Traditional Technology Selections

Traditional approaches to selecting technology often led to misaligned tools, wasted resources, and low adoption rates. In this session, we’ll explore common pitfalls—such as vendor-driven decisions, siloed planning, and failure to understand end-user needs.
Learn why these approaches fall short and what’s at stake if we don’t adopt better methods.


Session 2: Empathize: Understanding Your Users and Stakeholders

A Strategic Framework for Selecting the Right DAM

Choosing the right Digital Asset Management (DAM) system is a critical decision that impacts your organization’s ability to manage and deliver content effectively. This 4-part workshop presents a strategic, multi-principles approach—including design thinking, stakeholder alignment, user-centered evaluation, and long-term scalability—that guides you through the DAM selection process.

As Orange Logic’s first AI Solutions Architect, Grant leads the expansion of AI use cases across the platform, helping organizations unlock the full potential of their DAM and MAM systems through agentic AI - applied in a way that is powerful, practical, and responsible.
