Business, Technology and the Media: Charting a Course Through Chaos
The Center for the Digital Globe, The Donald W. Reynolds Chair of Business Journalism, the Alfred Friendly Press Foundation and Reynolds Journalism Institute hosted a symposium on March 15-16, 2010 to explore cutting edge ideas for the future of media. The invitation list includes executives from Samsung and the Associated Press. Several little-known start-ups and well-known futurists have been added as well. The first day goal was to stir the imagination with some excellent (and varied) presentations. The second day focused on several smaller seeded discussions that we hope will generate some new business models/directions by the end of the day.
The event was hosted by Randall Smith, the Donald W. Reynolds Chair of Business Journalism. For information, please contact Smith at smithrandall@missouri.edu.
