DAM Guru Program Appoints Ralph Windsor As New Director

London / Aarau, January 18, 2018. Ralph Windsor, editor of DAM News and Project Director of Digital Asset Management consultants, Daydream is to become the new Director of The DAM Guru Program (DGP).

DGP is a community DAM education and human resources matching service first established in 2013 by DAM Survival Guide author, David Diamond and sponsored by DAM vendor, Picturepark. DGP has over 1100 members and is open to digital asset managers, vendors and consultants from across the DAM industry.

I am very excited to be chosen to be the new Director of The DAM Guru Program by the DGP board. Since it was first started, it has become a focal point for DAM industry practitioners and the promotion of high quality educational resources. Consolidating the combined resources of DGP with DAM News represents an ideal opportunity to establish far greater cross-industry collaboration, continue the sterling work already carried out by DGP towards enhancing DAM education and to foster an environment that encourages greater innovation in the DAM sector. said Windsor.

What started as an idea overnight has turned into the industries' largest DAM community: DGP has organized highly successful webinars, relentlessly connected members, posted countless DAM jobs and events, and published hundreds of interviews with DAM professionals - all serving the DAM community. I'm very proud of these achievements and I'm convinced that Ralph and his enlarged team will successfully manage DGP to be even better connected and useful to those that matter most in our industry, the DAM users. said Ramon Forster, CEO of Picturepark .

The same team that manages DAM industry journal, DAM News (including the DAM Vendor directory, DAM Glossary, DAM Whitepapers and DAM Books) will assume responsibility for the day-to-day operations of both DAM News and also DAM Guru. All existing DGP services will continue to be provided as previously and a wide range of new initiatives are planned for 2018 and beyond.
