We’re pleased to announce the first details for the next news:rewired conference, which will take place on Friday 19 April at MSN UK’s offices in Victoria, London.

The one-day conference will bring together experts and innovators from the digital journalism industry for a day of inspiring presentations, practical workshops and topical discussions. Sessions will focus on the latest techniques and tools being used in forward-thinking newsrooms in the UK and beyond.

Some of the initial themes which we plan to cover at the event:

– curation and the journalist as a manager
– user-generated-content and building the community into the newsgathering process
– data journalism, including where to find data and initial research pointers
– social standards and online etiquette

Sessions will range from panels offering presentations and discussion around certain topics, and more workshop-style sessions, offering demonstrations and practical guides to digital tools.
