Welcome presentation by Kurt Kragh Sørensen, owner of IntraTeam. 

In a world saturated with AI-generated noise and diminishing trust in social platforms, the modern intranet must refocus on delivering curated, high-value content that users need—nothing more, nothing less.

This talk explores how editorial oversight, defined content standards, and frictionless delivery can transform the intranet into a trusted, authoritative resource.

Focusing on one case study – a highly user-centric intranet developed using a content design methodology – we’ll discuss the role of purposeful communities, and the critical shift away from distracting content toward impactful, accessible information.

Key takeaways:

• Understanding employees’ content needs is critical to intranet success
• How content design principles apply to an intranet
• How to build content at pace (and quality) as part of an intranet launch
