Well, the good old word puzzles are still very much alive and kicking, and media houses all around the globe consider them to be one of their digital edition's most important loyalty drivers.
The annual highlight for the media industry is approaching as the DCX Digital Content Expo will take place in Berlin from October 8-9. We’ll be there, and we would love to meet up!
