Structured Content and AI: Get Your Publications Out Better and Faster

In an era where readers demand high-quality, timely content, publishers are facing increasing pressure to produce more, faster, and smarter. What if the combination of structured content and artificial intelligence could be the solution?

In this session, Maarten van Vulpen explores how XML-first publishing, a method that structures content at its source, combined with AI tools, can transform the way educational and scientific publications are created and distributed. By making content machine-readable and modular, publishers can automate repetitive tasks, ensure consistency across multiple formats, and even enhance discoverability. AI, when fed with structured content, can accelerate workflows, generate summaries, suggest improvements, and assist in content enrichment, all while maintaining editorial control.

Drawing on real-world experiences from leading educational and scientific publishers, this talk demonstrates how these organizations are already achieving: Faster production timelines without compromising quality More intelligent reuse of content across platforms and formats Smarter ways to enhance content with AI, from research insights to personalized learning paths

Whether you are a publisher, editor, or author, this session will provide practical insights and actionable strategies to leverage the synergy between structured content and AI. Join us to discover how these technologies are not just tools, but enablers of better, faster, and future-ready publications.
