What people said about last year’s Media Innovation Week in Helsinki
“Superb array of content, many many takeaways – a full notebook and a whole new motivation at the end of the week.”
“It was a great way to connect with people from other media/publishing houses and to learn about the challenges they are facing. And of course about their success stories. Furthermore, INMA’s input and insights were very helpful to get a broader picture of the media industry, conversations with their representatives were inspiring. Great spirit over the three to five days, if you count the study tour in.”
“A wonderfully varied and content-rich conference that just keeps getting better and better.”
“Very well organised, good variety in programme, and a lot of concrete and fresh examples of everyday work.”
“INMA conferences are the best media conferences in the world, with the newest tips and trends.”
“Well prepared with lots of concrete examples from practice, good speakers and inspiring workshops, precisely presented trends, and a cross-section of the state of the industry.”
“Super interesting themes and talks. 7x7 was a great way to learn in a very efficient way what others are doing at the moment.”
“A rich programme of speakers, effective 7x7 format with concrete case studies, strong members' connection and informal atmosphere that enhance the effectiveness and the focus of the conference.”
