Who We Are?
STORYDRIVE ASIA – Enabling content owners to innovate and grow their businesses With a population of more than 620 million, the Southeast Asian region remains an under-explored market with huge potential – in the traditional publishing environment and emerging new media industries.
Publishing nowadays knows no fixed structure, no straight forward business models and not even consistent players. Be it for games, films or books, the business of publishing and work with content, has changed significantly over the last few years.

It offers a well-balanced combination of highlighting new trends, building a business platform and training.
