By on August 19, 2020

ONA20 Everywhere registration is now open!

We’re excited to launch registration for ONA20 Everywhere, our global journalism innovation festival happening Oct. 1-16. As a thank-you for the community’s continuing support, we’re offering 500 passes to ONA members at $185 until Aug. 25, a 45% discount off the regular pass price. Meanwhile, registration is open to non-ONA members at $350, less than half of our typical in-person conference price. Learn more and register.

We’ve created multiple opportunities to get involved with ONA20 Everywhere and receive complimentary passes, included speaking, volunteering and scholarships. You can also explore the first version of our schedule. We’ll continue to add speakers and sessions over the coming weeks, subscribe to the ONA20 newsletter to receive updates. 

Learning and networking series for women in leadership

We’re excited to bring you the Women’s Leadership Accelerator: Summer Series, four weeks of dynamic conversations on leadership with women from a diverse range of backgrounds—open to people in any role. We’ll begin with a discussion on Aug. 27 with Amanda Zamora and Errin Haines of The 19th on how their organization is centering its mission on gender and racial equity. Other conversations will cover women in product, career advice from the Women’s Leadership Accelerator and women in entrepreneurship—every Thursday at 12 p.m. ET. 

Registration for this series is free; we welcome donations and funding support that can help us provide more programming like this.
