Selected engagements

A sense of the work

A representative view of the engagements DJB Strategies takes on, across strategy, modelling, licensing and policy. Client details are shared only where we have permission to do so.

A leadership blueprint for the agentic era

For a major national newspaper, assessed the business's readiness for AI and agentic disruption, then facilitated an executive workshop — using scenario planning to converge on the no-regrets moves that hold up across the most likely future market states.

Forecasting the commercial impact of AI

Building on an industry model developed for a national publishers' body, produced a granular forecast of how AI Overviews and chatbot substitution will affect a major digital publisher — modelling both engagement loss and the revenue impact, with strategic measures to defend the business.

An AI licensing strategy for a national title

Developed a data-led AI licensing strategy — analysing the market, establishing principles to govern engagement with AI developers, shaping pricing and contracting terms, and defining the negotiating approach and the capability needed to run licensing as a durable revenue stream.

Evidencing the economic harm of AI to an industry

For a global industry body, designed an economic impact study forecasting the harm of unlicensed AI outputs and streaming fraud — a robust, defensible model, built to inform engagement with policymakers and localise to individual markets.
