If you are media worker looking for a new challenge or you have a side hustle or project you need someone to work with you then do we have the event for you.

The South Africa Media Innovation Program is heading down to the Mother City on Friday 08 February and will be hosting a networking and speed dating event for media workers, business developers and technologists.

The event takes place at a time when industry leaders and professionals are battling with the disruption of the media industry and solutions are being sought for strategies that can be used to help curb the negative effects.

Already we have seen some of these negative effects such as the recent announcement of the closing down of Ndalo Media (the publishing house of the Destiny titles), the announcement of retrenchments at the SABC and declining advertising and sales revenues for newspapers and magazines.

If you are media worker who is looking for an opportunity to find a potential business or technology partner this is a great opportunity to meet some like-minded folks who could help you make your idea a reality.
