If you have been a previous guest at Media Marketplace, you know the outstanding value of choosing appointments with Canadian Partners from both the public and private sectors to discuss story ideas. You may choose pre-scheduled appointments or simply browse the Open Marketplaces on Monday and Tuesday. Breakfast, lunch, refreshment breaks, and evening events offer great networking opportunities. The Annual Northern Lights Awards for works appearing in 2012 is once again open to journalists. The awards will be presented at lunch on Tuesday, April 16, 2013.

If you are unfamiliar with our event, please see About Canada Media Marketplace for specific details on who will be there and how you would most benefit from attending. When you register, you will have the opportunity to provide a short, personal biography and photo which will be available to the Partners.
