The media landscape continues to be rewritten as traditional outlets evolve, and the attention spans of consumers splinter. From seasoned journalists to emerging creators, a new wave of unique voices are sharing their perspectives and work through newsletters, Substack, and podcasts that speak directly to their audiences.
This panel explores how independent voices are reshaping media structures, redefining community, and creating opportunities in an era where engagement matters more than ever. Our panel of media innovators will explore what it means to inform, build an engaged community, and entertain in 2025 and beyond.
