Stephen Miron to speak at Media 360

Miron, who alongside Ashley Tabor, Richard Park and Charles Allen has helped establish the Global Group as one of the most successful commercial radio groups in Europe, will be taking to the stage to reveal how it achieved this against all the odds.

He will focus on how the business was written off by many who felt the medium of radio was supposed to be overwhelmed by digital competitors, and explain how Global transformed this adversity into a successful company.

His keynote will take into account the lessons that were learnt for advertisers, owners and agencies from the reinvention of a fragmented local medium into a national platform for advertisers.

Another keynote speaker at the event will include Nadim Zahwi, MP for Stratford on Avon, who will provide insightful and comprehensible advice for businesses looking to survive and thrive in these challenging times.

In this session, the co-author of the book 'Masters of Nothing' will review the herd instinct of the boom years through to the tipping point of 2007 and 2008, and the rewards for failure received by those at the top.

Both these speakers will be joined by a number of other high-profile media industry figures, who will be providing insights into the current state of the industry and predictions on the future.
