News organizations across the country are getting into the events business. There is big revenue potential, but how do you bring together the business and editorial interests to ensure integrity of the final product?

This session is designed for:

  • Anyone interested in events for their newsroom

  • Executives whose newsrooms host or are considering hosting events and want to make sure they maintain your newsroom’s integrity

    • Speakers
