London 2014

Every two years, the MaKi Media Conference held in London brings together the key players in Europe’s busiest media market.

In 2014, the event began with an exclusive session at the FT with the bus ed team and the management columnists. We then headed to Cass Business School to meet editors and reporters from Bloomberg, BBC, WSJ, The Economist, CNBC, Times of London, The Independent, The Guardian, CBS News, Management Today, Reuters and leading publications from the rest of the world.
