It&#8217;s built for specialists and leaders who work at the intersection of technology and publishing strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Talk: Content Architecture = Business Architecture<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Content-first is giving way to user-first: content is consumed in many formats and in very different situations. Christian Keck shows how a modular content architecture frees content from rigid systems and makes it flexible, reusable, and scalable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The talk takes on three core questions: How is traditional publishing IT changing? How do you scale digital user portals? And how can AI deliver content automatically, so it fits each reader&#8217;s context and interests?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Modular enterprise content architecture and AI-powered content delivery aren&#8217;t ends in themselves. They&#8217;re what make it possible to bring new products to market faster, and to adapt business models as reading habits change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Speaker<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Christian Keck is a seasoned publishing and media expert. At Forward Publishing, he leads the development and go-to-market for modular content architectures and digital delivery platforms. With years of experience on both the publishing and the technology side, he pairs strategic thinking with hands-on execution. His focus is the digital transformation of media companies, from modular content architecture and AI-powered content delivery to modern publishing platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/digital-publishing-report.de\/event\/systemswork-publishing-technologien-in-der-praxis-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" ><span class=\"wp-block-button__text\">Register now<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On 12 June 2026, at the Digital Publishing Report&#8217;s digital conference, Christian Keck shows how modular content architecture frees content from rigid systems. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1054,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1055","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-events","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Break the CMS.
