The next Newsrewired digital journalism conference will take place on 27 November 2019 at Reuters in Canary Wharf, London.
This will be our 25th conference, and as usual, we will aim to provide delegates with practical skills and ideas they can take home and explore in their own organisations.
The day will feature a mix of workshops, talks and panel discussions about the latest tools, trends and techniques in digital journalism.
The tickets cost £190+VAT and they give you access to the full-day conference and include lunch and refreshments, as well as after-event networking drinks and a delegate ‘goodie’ bag.
We are still working on the programme, so more speakers and sessions will be announced soon – but you can see a draft agenda below to get a better idea of what to expect from the day.
If you would like to suggest a session or a talk, or sponsor the event, please get in touch by emailing marcela@journalism.co.uk.
