LAUREL's Media Lab is a dedicated monthly meetup for up-and-coming newsmakers (executive leaders, founders, communications professionals, spokespersons, and creators) and journalists to connect over coffee and discuss recent trends.
Occurring every first Wednesday of the month across multiple cities, the event offers a low-pressure coffee mixer intended to drive source diversity in news media and amplify the work of local news outlets.
This event is a great fit for:
+ journalists and news outlets seeking new sources
+ writers from new media outlets (podcasts, newsletters)
+ founders, executives, and brand spokespersons
+ content creators and subject matter experts
+ journalism and communications students
+ comms professionals
Each month, a specific industry sector is selected (e.g., tech, healthcare, nonprofit), and the team at LAUREL curates a list of local news media professionals to attend as honored guests. Join us to learn more about the stories they're working on and how your expert insight can move you from anonymous to newsmaker.
Past guests have included journalists from ABC, CBS, Star Tribune, MinnPost, MPR, Minneapolis-St. Paul Business Journal, Sahan Journal, and many trade and new media platforms.
