The environment could not be more exciting: The World Newspaper Week in Vienna, 10-15 October 2011, is taking place in an era that is characterised by fundamental changes in media use, revolutionary new technologies and the search for promising business models.

This event brings together the leading events of the worldwide newspaper community in a single location: the 63rd World Newspaper Congress, the 18th World Editors Forum and IFRA Expo.

So what awaits visitors in Vienna?

We have been able to organise an absolutely top-class programme! Let’s begin with IFRA Expo: With its clear focus on cross-media, it is definitely the right choice to find out about the latest trends for print, online, mobile and tablet publishing.

Our Media Port will present innovative publishers from all over the world with their recipes for success. These will include the Sunday Times from the United Kingdom, Salzburger Nachrichten, Red Bulletin and Gazetto dello Sport from Italy.

Participation in the Media Port, including the “Women in Media” networking lunch designed especially for women working at newspaper publishing houses and supplier companies, is free for visitors attending IFRA Expo (10-12 October).
