The new channel will feature brief Vlogs, as well as media interviews; panel discussions with a variety of industry leaders; and formal and informal presentations.
"I launched this blog nearly a year ago and through it, I've been able to connect with people from all over the globe about trends in our industry," said Jennifer A. Jones, creator and author of Speak Media Blog. "I sincerely hope the Vlogs, videos and video responses will allow us to get to know each other even more and generate further discussion about the major changes happening in our industry."
