news:rewired folder

Journalism.co.uk's next news:rewired conference will take place on Friday 19 April at MSN UK's offices in Victoria, London.

The one-day conference will offer delegates a day of inspiring presentations, practical workshops and topical discussions with experts and innovators from the digital journalism industry. 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 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 best practice for online interactions
Sessions will range from panels offering presentations and discussion around certain topics, to more practical workshops, offering demonstrations and guides to digital tools and techniques.

Delegates will be able to attend four sessions in total on the day, out of a choice of six, as well one workshop from a choice of three.

We will also bring back the news:rewired lightning round, which will give innovators in the journalism industry a chance to showcase their work during two minute talks.

We will be announcing more session and speaker details very soon; keep an eye on www.newsrewired.com for regular updates
