London Business School hosts its sixth annual media summit on Monday 24 November 2008

The sixth Annual London Media Summit will take place at London Business School on Monday 24th November 2008. Co-Chaired by Channel 4 News' Jon Snow and CNN's Becky Anderson, the 2008 London Media Summit will explore the effects of digital distribution channels on traditional media.

With keynote speeches from: Bill Roedy, Chairman and CEO, MTV Networks International, Alan Rusbridger, Editor, The Guardian, Stewart Till, Chairman, UK Film Council, and Mark Thompson, Director-General, BBC this year's Summit will offer the freshest opinions from the industry's most senior practitioners.

Entitled, "The Great Debate: How can ‘old' media survive?" the theme will encourage a lively and engaging debate focusing on the future of four traditional media platforms:

  • Music
  • Print
  • Film
  • Television
Keynotes and panellists will address the significance of ‘old' media in politics, society and democracy and explore the impact of change on an industry that educates, informs and entertains people around the world. Speakers will also offer a business roadmap outlining how traditional media companies can best react to change.

With an array of high-profile media leaders taking part, "The Great Debate: how can ‘old' media survive" will consist of compelling keynote speeches, authoritative panel discussions and excellent networking opportunities on the campus of Europe's leading business school. We hope you will join us to discuss and debate the exciting and important issues surrounding change in the Media Industry.

Organised by London Business School's student-run Media Club and in its sixth year, the London Media Summit is an established, not-for-profit event for the media community. Please visit the London Media Summit website for further information.
