7 Reasons Why

Last year we asked what was the top reason you attended the
Diversity + Media Career Summit. Here were the top seven reasons why:

  1. Networking
  2. The Content
  3. The Speakers
  4. The Breakouts
  5. Job Search
  6. Meeting New People
  7. Internships

On Friday, November 22, we invite you to join us at The Ford Foundation Center for Social Justice. Don’t miss a full-day of keynotes, panels, breakout workshops, and dedicated networking sessions. What’s the main reason you’ll be attending this year?
