Reimagining DAM 2026

Artificial intelligence is impacting Digital Asset Management significantly: From Auto-Tagging and smart search to predictive insights and content generation.

But with new power comes new responsibility.

We’ll discuss how to use AI thoughtfully and transparently, balancing innovation with governance, and how DAM providers and the industry at large have the responsibility of contributing to building a more trustworthy and ethical future for visual content.

With ever-growing content libraries, metadata is the key to keeping control, context, and compliance. Strong metadata governance ensures assets remain searchable, secure, and meaningful — across teams, systems, and AI-driven processes.

At Reimagining DAM, we’ll explore how structured metadata strategies are evolving and why governance is becoming the backbone of scalable, trustworthy content management.

Digital content workflows are a critical for execution and delivering on goals and strategies. They define how efficiently digital assets move, change, and deliver value across the content lifecycle.

From creation to publication, we’ll explore how automated, intelligent content workflows empower teams to collaborate efficiently, maintain compliance, and scale content operations without losing control.

AI-generated content floods the digital space and the need for verifying what’s real and trustworthy is more important than ever.

Content Authenticity is becoming a necessity for brand integrity, compliance, and public trust.

Let's dive into standards like C2PA, the role of provenance metadata, and how DAM can help organizations protect credibility in an age of misinformation.

Compliance with data protection regulations remains a cornerstone of working with images of people. The GDPR, for example, impacts how content is stored, shared, and used, especially when personal data is involved.

At Reimagining DAM, we’ll look at how organizations can align DAM practices with privacy-by-design principles, ensuring transparency, security, and user trust across every asset and workflow.

Every industry faces unique challenges when it comes to managing and trusting digital content — from Marketing & Communications, Media & Entertainment, to Publishing, Government, Education, Museums, Law enforcement, Retail and Manufacturing.

During our breakout sessions at the Fotoware User Conference (Wednesday morning), you’ll have the chance to dive into relevant, real-world use cases, share experiences, and learn from others in your field.
