DESCRIPTION:Thanks to our event sponsors: \n\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\nOnline Conversations and the Rise of Influence for Commissioning\nHow can editors and publishers move beyond the traditional channels for commissioning? Where can they reach new voices and markets? \n  \nThe power and potential of online conversations is emerging as a new source of untapped content.
