QUOTE OF THE MONTH
"Transparency is important; if we're consistently doing things behind closed doors and not bringing it out and allowing the learnings to come into the wider industry, then we're not doing our role as a public service broadcaster and driving good behaviours and standards that we uphold ourselves to. People having trust in what we do and what we say is really important."
— Wayne Charran , Channel 4 Head of Data, Architecture & Technology Strategy
Channel 4's Wayne Charran discussed the role of public service media organisations in sharing their strategies with broader industry. Wayne was speaking with the DPP podcast after his address at the DPP Leaders' Briefing 2024 in London.
