Security, control and accuracy were the three points stressed by the presenters at the "Digital Asset Distribution Conference: An Emerging Infrastructure" on 21 June 2007 in New York City and on 12 July 2007 in London. Mark Bide from Rightscom Limited and Mike Shatzkin from The IdeaLogical Company, Inc. moderated the event, which was hosted by Klopotek. 
Attended by over 100 key individuals from the US publishing industry in New York and over 90 in London, this conference allowed, for the first time ever, the main digital asset distribution companies to gather in one place to describe, demonstrate and answer questions on their individual services.

The efficient distribution of digital content is coming of age and publishers are being faced with many new options. To help publishers better understand this significant issue, Klopotek commissioned The Idea Logical Company, Inc. and Rightscom to research this emerging area of new publishing trading partners. This conference will present the results of their research in conjunction with presentations from the leading Digital Asset Distributors (DADs) for the publishing industry.
The New York Conference will be held on June 21st, 2007 at the Hilton Times Square and the London Conference will be held on July 12th, 2007 at the London Goethe Institut.

Steering production intelligently and interactively: With the Production Cockpit, Klopotek has developed a tool which provides a complete overview of all ongoing production projects at the click of a mouse button. Klopotek’s browser based Production Cockpit opens up completely new possibilities for monitoring and steering production. A red, yellow and green ‘traffic light’ shows the user when there are deviations in either the time schedule or cost plan.

Liber AB, a Wolters Kluwer Education company and Sweden’s leading educational publisher, completed the relaunch of their entire online presence in February 2007. Liber has successfully been running the Klopotek publishing software since early 2005.
