THE CONFERENCE
FUTURE NOW Media & Entertainment Conference is the first conference of its kind, bringing unprecedented access and opportunity for leaders on the forefront of the industry and top college and graduate students to connect, learn, and grow together! The industry’s most influential leaders, senior executives, and professionals share insights about the broadcast, cable, and digital media businesses along with the latest trends and emerging technologies. Through keynotes, panel discussions, workshops, and intimate mentoring sessions, media professionals share about how to succeed in the industry and the range of possible job opportunities. This is a rare and incredible learning and networking opportunity for students to make meaningful connections that will better prepare and position them to pursue their careers upon graduation. The application materials of those accepted to attend the conference are included in a TALENT RESOURCE PORTFOLIO that FUTURE NOW provides recruiters, sponsors, and executives in attendance as a resource to help fill internship and job openings. This is not a guarantee of a job, but it is a great opportunity for students to get noticed by companies present at the conference and not get lost in an online abyss!
Check out this VIDEO about the conference, and this HIGHLIGHTS reel from the 2022 conference. The 2024 FUTURE NOW Media & Entertainment Conference will be held June 11 - 13 in-person in NYC.
