Growing media community to participate in study tour of German media houses

The Portuguese Press Association and Medias Suisses are the latest news media associations to join the New World Encounters community, offering their members access to an upcoming virtual study tour of German publishers and expanding the discussions about the future of news.

The New World Encounters online study tour begins on 17 September.

“We are pleased to welcome the Portguese Press Association and Medias Suisses as new partners of New World Encounters,” said David Sallinen, founder of Upgrade Media, which is organizing the event along with QuestiQ. “The goal of NWE is to enable the widest possible sharing of knowledge and experience, and the participation of these media associations and their members will enhance the discussions to the benefit of all.”

The virtual study tour is open to news executives, companies and associations world-wide, with more than 50 already enrolled.
