Startups
Working with startups allows media companies to discover new approaches and forward-looking solutions that help them create a sustainable business for the future.
The Global Alliance for Media Innovation aims to bring together the next generation of tech entrepreneurs and startups to meet and engage with our global network of media executives.
Working with startups unlocks the innovation potential of tech entrepreneurs with outstanding creative solutions but a lack of market access to commercialise them successfully.
Are you a startup looking to work more closely with media companies? Or a media company interested in working with startups?
