Topics and presenters have been announced for the April 2-4 Mega-Conference in Dallas.
Conference sessions will kick off Monday, April 3, with America’s Newspapers revealing highlights from a just completed national research study. It will leave attendees with a road map of key points to reference and reflect on as they make their way through sessions over the next two days.
The News Industry Mega-Conference is the premiere event in the news media industry. It will be held April 2-4 in Dallas, Texas, at the Hilton Anatole.
Rates are at their lowest for newspaper and media executives who commit to participating in an interactive 75-minute Solutions Roundtable session during the conference. This fast-paced session will give you the chance to learn about some of the newest solutions in the media industry from our Solutions Partners and can provide you with ideas that will more than pay for your trip! Roundtable participation is limited to newspaper and media company attendees, plus the sponsors of those roundtables. Vendors and supplier companies that do not sponsor a roundtable may not attend those sessions.
Newspaper attendee rates (for members of America's Newspapers and the News/Media Alliance who are attending the Solutions Roundtable sessions) are as low as $595. Register here

Several Mega-Conference attendees have reported receiving phone calls from a person asking them who was making their reservations for the conference. They were asked which hotel the reservation was made with, the dates of their reservation and what was paid — to ensure that they received the conference discount.
When you reserve your hotel room directly through the Hilton Anatole using our conference link — https://book.passkey.com/event/50364990/owner/863/home — you automatically receive our room block discount.
If you are contacted by anyone with questions about your reservation, under no circumstances should you give them any credit card information.
In past years, we also have had difficulty with companies trying to sell our attendee list to our members. The only way to receive a legitimate Excel spreadsheet of actual attendees is to become a sponsor or exhibitor at the Mega-Conference.
When in doubt about any requests or offers that you receive, please reach out to Patty Slusher or Paulette Sheffield in our office.
