In the week leading up to Scotland’s referendum on independence and less than a year to the next UK general election, this year’s RTS London Conference provides a timely insight into the forces that forge our industry worldwide.
Does the media world rest in a state of natural equilibrium between the political and the powerful or is it the coveted prize in a tug of war? How do policies help or hinder growth and innovation and should we celebrate or fear increasingly unregulated media channels?
We have lined up a cornucopia of expertise spanning the many axes of politics and power covering the UK, Europe and global markets. In particular we are thrilled that: Chase Carey, President and COO of 21st Century Fox; JB Perrette, President of Discovery Networks International; and The Rt Hon Sajid Javid MP will have the opportunity to provide their insights into the topic.
We will explore a number of searching themes. How is the BBC shaping up for charter renewal in 2016 and what will the future PSB landscape look like? The next generation of challenger companies will provide answers to the questions many traditional media would prefer not to hear. We will debate the changing role of talent in IP creation. We will explore the future provision of broadcast news, the role of online competitors and crucially how PSB news will be funded. We will also discuss what our industry is doing to enable the next generation of talent and increase access to the sector.
With merger and acquisition deals firmly back on the agenda, we’ll consider strategies for success through the eyes of global players on both sides of the Atlantic.
We examine the changing role that broadcast, online and social media play in the democratic process around the world. Now we can all join the conversation, what power will today’s media continue to hold?
Come along to meet your peers and feel the power, play politics and talk media at the RTS London Conference on September 9th.

Chief Executive, STV
