An Event Not to Be Missed!
The Online News Association’s annual conference brings together the best in digital media for three days of informational sessions and networking opportunities. From the opening session that evoked tears from ONA’s departing, Executive Director, Jane McDonnell and the keynote audience to the endless collaboration across challenges, solutions and best practices, the global perspective from the thousands of industry professionals who came together in Denver, ONA16 was an event not to be missed!
There were many discussions took place in Denver this year – but audience engagement and community development were the two topics that dominated the September 15-17 conference.
