Join editors from The Wall Street Journal’s live journalism team for an inside look at developing engaging, newsmaking live events for hybrid audiences. The Journal’s live journalism portfolio spans multi-day events such as The Future of Everything Festival, WSJ Tech Live, and CEO Council to news-reactive analysis for readers on topics ranging from retail investing to natural disasters. In the last year, the Journal has pivoted its busy calendar of in-person events to a robust offering of virtual experiences, resulting in audience growth and increased engagement.
This session is designed for:
- Journalists interested in crafting news-driven hooks for live conversations
- Editors interested in learning more about multiplatform journalism and reader engagement
- Newsroom leaders seeking new storytelling platforms with revenue potentials
