First Panel: The Art of Disruption with Jane Friedman and Jeffrey Sharp of Open Road Media

It’s halfway through the first panel, which features Jane Friedman and Jeffrey Sharp of Open Road Media. Friedman and Sharp have been explaining what Open Road Media is and will do. They’re focusing on marketing and their excitement about their ideas for digging deep into an author’s brand and backlist, mining unusual content to enhance their products, such as university archives where authors’ papers are housed in order to add value to their eBooks.
