Media boss to speak at Advantage conference
Ellis Watson, CEO of Scottish media group DC Thomson, has been announced as the second keynote speaker for Advantage conference in Dubai from May 14-18.
Ellis has been marketing director at The Sun newspaper, reporting directly to Rupert Murdoch, CEO of Celador International, licensing Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? to 100 countries around the world before becoming managing director of Mirror Group Newspapers.
In his current role at DC Thomson, Ellis is steering a traditional, family run firm into a modern and thriving business. In the process, he has shed a third of the staff, increased turnover at the papers and taken the business’ icon The Beano from print to digital.
He will look at how a significant external shock like recession can actually be a springboard for positive change.
