KEYNOTE SPEAKER

Product Thinking for News

Becky Bowers,
product director, The Philadelphia Inquirer,
7 p.m. ET Thursday, Nov. 11

Becky Bowers, product director at The Philadelphia Inquirer, spent two decades in newsrooms as a reporter and editor. Now she reports to a chief technology and product officer on the business side of the company, guiding product strategies across all of the Inquirer’s reader initiatives and platforms. What ties those two experiences together is an intense focus on our audiences—something you can embrace now to supercharge your journalism, your career and our democracy.

Our keynote speaker is sponsored by the Temple University Klein College of Media and Communication.
