This popular and intense study tour visits three of the most fully converged multi-platform newsrooms in the world.:

  • The Sarasota Herald-Tribune
  • The Tampa Tribune/WFLA/TBO.com NewsCenter
  • Florida Today, Melbourne
  • Members meet executives and rank-and-file staffers who "do" convergence, see firsthand what convergence is all about and learn what it takes to build a converged news operation.

    Who Should Attend and Why

    Newspaper, broadcast and online editors, publishers and general managers; marketing, business development and sales executives should attend. Attendees gain:

  • A deeper understanding of the costs and benefits of different models of convergence

  • The nuts and bolts of structuring a convergence partnership to benefit the audience-and the bottom line

  • Membership in a powerful, new web of relationships that includes leading thinkers and media convergence practitioners
