The next Digital Editors Network meeting on June 9th will look at new digital platforms for news - but will also explore how innovative media organisations are grappling with and rethinking the news experiences they create there. Which new formats work best now? What are innovators planning for next? Hosting the discussion is just such a forward thinker’: John Crowley, The Wall Street Journal’s Digital Editor for Europe, Middle East and Africa.
Speakers at the meeting on the 17th floor of News Corporation’s UK headquarters at London Bridge will include the BBC World Service's mobile Apps editor Trushar Barot on why his WhatsApp experiment convinced management to develop a formal instant-messaging news strategy; Tom Phillips on what new formats work for Buzzfeed and what ’type' of coders they are looking to hire to build them; why Edward Miller of Immersiv.ly believes that the end of Google Glass is just the start of virtual reality; and how Quartz engages audiences with data (and how you can too use their open-source tool Chartbuilder).
Participants will also get a sneak preview of the Innovations in Newspapers: World Report 2015 due out the following week.
Discussions will be co-chaired by the DEN’s convenors François Nel, director of the Journalism Leaders Programme at the University of Central Lancashire and a Visiting Fellow at the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism at Oxford University and Nick Turner, Digital Strategy Manager at the CN Group. The event sponsors also include the editorial management software company Desk-Net. Speakers at the Spring meeting, which has been tagged as #formatDEN, are:
Trushar Barot is Mobile Editor for the BBC World Service.
John Earner is the CEO and co-founder of Space Ape Games, a two-year old mobile gaming startup in central London.

DEN participants are a lively bunch who enjoy robust, frank conversations. For that reason, we'll not be streaming this meetup live and observing the Chatham House Rule.
The programme on Tuesday, June 9th, will run from 2pm to 6pm at The News Building, 1 London Bridge Street, London SE1 9GF, with registration opening at 1:30pm and conversations afterwards spilling over into a networking reception that wraps at 7:30pm. Participants may also want to join the speakers for dinner at Balls Brothers at Hay's Galleria.
