The next full-day news:rewired digital journalism conference will take place on 1 December, and we are excited to announce the first speakers who will be joining us on the day, including experts from the BBC, The Wall Street Journal, Balkan Investigative Reporting Network, and The Times and The Sunday Times.

The day will be packed with practical advice and lessons from some of digital media’s leading figures, covering topics such as data storytelling, cross-border investigative techniques, in-house tools and their role in the newsroom, and the latest tips for publishers on chat apps.

The next few months are going to be exciting ones at the Journalism.co.uk offices – we have two news:rewired events coming up.

We are running a news:rewired ‘in focus’ conference for the first time, a half-day event taking place at Thomson Reuters in Canary Wharf on 21 October. ‘In focus’ will be looking at the issues around social media newsgathering and verification, and provide delegates with the tools and advice needed to find stories on social quickly, ethically and reliably.

And our full-day news:rewired digital journalism conference will be taking place on 1 December, where we have some fantastic speakers lined up that we are planning to reveal in the coming weeks. To help delegates make the most of the upcoming events, we’ve put together a few ticketing deals that offer access to ‘in focus’, news:rewired, and a full day of training in December – or any combination of the three – and discounts!
