This one-day conference, organised by ippr in partnership with MediaGuardian, returned for its eighth year. The Oxford Media Convention 2010 will focus on the realities of a converged media world as senior government and industry figures come together and discuss current and forthcoming challenges and opportunities around media policy, strategy and regulation. Seen by many as the industry defining event, the Oxford Media Convention provides an important opportunity for senior figures from new and traditional media, academia and regulatory bodies to think creatively about the regulatory framework we want to see develop to guarantee the success of our creative and media industries.
