Story begins
Outriders Summit
After years of crisis, the value of good journalism is slowly being acknowledged. New, participatory models put the reader into the heart of good reporting and impactful stories come as a result. The summit provided a space for authors to share and co-create utilizing the power of technology based on a solid foundation of values.
We couldn’t have envisioned a better theme than the one that pays tribute to stories.
Story should always come first.
