Wednesday, 9 December 2009Moscow is hosting the fourth European and Asian media forum on 9-10 December, bringing together more than 150 of the world's top media managers.
Journalists from the CIS and Baltics will be able to meet their Russian colleagues, representatives of government institutions, well-known politicians and public figures during plenary sessions, panel discussions, round tables and sectional work in various media spheres.
This year's forum was organized by state-run Russian News & Information Agency RIA Novosti. "There is a long-felt need for open and professional dialogue," RIA Novosti Editor-in-Chief Svetlana Mironyuk said.
"In the CIS, processes develop dynamically and society has the right to demand a quicker reaction from us," she said, adding that RIA Novosti is not just an information agency but also a new medium which provides a range of channels to consume information and to broadcast news.
"We became pioneers and masters in multimedia technologies and have felt all the positive aspects of our 'reset'," she explained. "It's time we hold open professional dialogue because we have something to share with our partners, and we have the chance to become somewhat of a super computer for the journalistic society." |
