Keynote speaker topic – Creating the Future of News

Description

In an extraordinarily fast-moving world driven by the desire for instant information, the quality of our news will be at the heart of the future of society. While most news organizations around the world have been deeply challenged by these shifts, including from traditional formats to digital and mobile delivery, we have the potential to create a robust future for quality news and new organizations. Key aspects of that shift include tapping crowdsourcing, measuring news source reputation, personalizing media, and tapping AI content creation to allow skilled journalists to apply their uniquely human skills to uncovering and reporting news that has an impact. The future of news is ours to create, by building towards compelling visions and collaborating with participants across the news landscape.
