MEDIA INDUSTRIES 2024
An International Interdisciplinary Conference

KING’S COLLEGE LONDON, 16-19 April 2024

Media Industries 2024 builds on the success of the 2018 inaugural conference Media Industries: Current Debates and Future Directions. Covid lockdowns unfortunately led to the cancellation of Media Industries 2020: Global Currents and Contradictions. After the smaller scale, thematically focused Locating Media Industries: Cities, Spaces, Places, in June 2023, in April 2024 Media Industries is expected to return to the full conference (over 400 delegates from 32 countries).  Since its inception, the aim of the conference has been to provide a meeting ground for all forms of media industries research, and this year’s conference continues this purpose. Across the four days, panel speakers and roundtable participants address the multiplicity of media industries, presenting work engaging with diverse industrial, territorial, and historical contexts. To energize interdisciplinary discussions, the conference maintains an open research agenda, showcasing work emerging from across various intellectual and methodological traditions in media industries scholarship.

Media Industries 2024 provides a meeting ground for all forms of media industries research. The four day conference focuses on the industrial practices, processes and existences of media.

Speakers include prof. Massimo Scaglioni, Director of the Research Centre for Television and Audiovisual Media, that on Friday, 19^th April at 11.15 with Mattia Galli will present the paper 'The Shape of a PSM Company to Come: RAI’s Digital Strategy Between National Policies and Industrial Objectives' during Panel #M3 PUBLIC SERVICE MEDIA IN THE AGE OF PLATFORMS: POLICY, STRATEGY AND INTERFACES.
