Join the Publicity Club of Chicago for an evening at the Museum of Broadcast Communications.
?Set within one of Chicago’s most recognizable media institutions, the evening brings together communicators, media professionals, and industry leaders for a conversation on how media is evolving in real time.
?At the center of the evening is Airwaves to Algorithms: The Evolving Nature of Media, a discussion on how “broadcast” has expanded beyond traditional radio and television into streaming, podcasts, and algorithm-driven distribution.
?As content moves across platforms and audiences become more fragmented, the way stories are created, shared, and experienced continues to shift. This conversation brings together a small group of media leaders to share how they are thinking about those changes and what they are seeing in their work.
?This is an opportunity to spend time with people thinking about where media is actually going, and what that means for your work.
?Following the program, the evening continues with time to explore the Museum and connect with others across Chicago’s communications community.
