MAKING OUR VISIONA REALITYThe media sector is going through a period of exciting developments and major challenges. The digital revolution is creating new ways of communicating to and with audiences at a global level. However, it is also challenging well established editorial and commercial models developed over the past decades.With the new digital landscape, we are no longer judged by how we compare in relation to local competitors but at a global level, as users can access content from anywhere in the world online and, increasingly, via their mobile devices. Despite these uncertainties, at Guardian Media Limited we embrace these challenges and continue to adapt and improve what we do and the way we work in order to remain competitive and relevant in an increasingly complex industry. In our pursuit to be the leading communications company in the region operating with global standards, GML has been pursuing initiatives at both operational and portfolio levels.Operationally we have been making progressive strides towards a full transition to the digital domain, in keeping with global trends. In 2015 we embarked upon a signifcant automation project for our print operations, which will bring our processes in line with the latest industry technology and enhance our operational effciency and capacity.We also made the frst major step towards becoming a regional company by our acquisition of iRadio in Guyana and continue to explore other regional opportunities.Additionally, we have expanded our media operations to state-of-the-art high defnition digital billboards. These are the largest billboards to be installed locally. Whilst celebrating our long heritage in traditional media, it is through these actions that we continue our drive to be the most successful, ambitious, impactful and relevant multimedia digital business, therefore bringing value to our audiences, our shareholders and the country as a whole.Georgetown,Guyana
