How to turn ecosystem chaos into media opportunity
A big moment for news media, so how do we respond?
The 95th Annual INMA World Congress of News Media returns to New York York for a dynamic exploration of the rapidly evolving media landscape – punctuated by the trials and tribulations of the Trump presidency on the information ecosystem.
In a year defined by transformation and redefined by the new American administration, the INMA conference theme “How to Turn Ecosystem Chaos Into Media Opportunity” will drive discussions in New York.
INMA will fuse two threads into one playbook:
- How to confront the evolving power structures, information ecosystems, competitive landscapes, alliances, processes, and products that are reshaping the media industry.
- How to navigate and capitalise on the chaotic business, moral, legal, and ecosystem effects of the fast-moving geopolitical moves emanating from the United States.
What does this mean to your company? What does this mean to the news industry? What might it mean to you?
Over five impactful days, INMA’s one-of-a-kind World Congress will feature dynamic sessions, keynotes, and panel discussions at The TimesCenter, the New York Times’ Midtown event gem, offering a unique opportunity to inspire and recalibrate your media strategies in light of today’s fast-moving environment.
The week will be punctuated with exclusive study tours of the most iconic New York
media brands, a sky-high welcome reception at the new Peak at Hudson Yards, and a
celebration at the Global Media Awards dinner at the iconic Edison Ballroom. Hands-on
seminars will complete our week together, taking us to the iconic Lincoln Center for the first time.
Additionally, corporate members will have the unique chance to engage in private,
insightful conversations with INMA subject-matter leaders during our “Ask Me
Anything” sessions, fostering valuable connections.
Reach for the best with the INMA World Congress, an experience like no other in the news industry.
Where there is change, there is always opportunity. Join INMA in New York for the smartest dissection and prioritisation of these issues.
