Raleigh Media Leaders event at The Hive in January 2010
Introducing the New Media Leaders
If you’ve been to any of the previous Media Leaders events, you understand how important it can be to connect with people in your field, exchange ideas, and discuss trends. And you know that it’s especially valuable to do this in a non-stuffy environment. No speeches, no presentations, and no sales pitches.
That’s important to us, too. It’s why Media Leaders Raleigh was formed and why New Media Leaders is our next step.
What’s different?
New Media Leaders is not part of the MediaLeaders.tv organization. Our approach is more open source, collaborative, and community-driven. Cities that want to participate can do what works best for them — there will be no centralized entity making decisions about how the event should be promoted and priced.
What’s the same?
A New Media Leaders event will still be based on an informal evening of drinks and conversation. None of that has changed.
It will still be the best opportunity for PR, media, marketing, advertising, and tech professionals to connect with each other and to represent their companies or themselves. It will still be an awesome chance to chat with a potential employer or employee, to finally meet your social media connections in person, and to chat with others who share your passions.
Join us on this journey. This is your event, and we’re looking forward to you sharing your feedback and getting involved. See you on the 8th!
