Web Summit – one of the world’s leading tech and innovation conferences – is coming to Vancouver this May, creating an unparalleled opportunity for BC companies to connect with a global network of investors, entrepreneurs, media, and industry leaders.
In partnership with Innovate BC, we’re launching Road to Web Summit Vancouver, Powered by Innovate BC (R2WSV) – an exclusive program series designed to help B.C. startups enhance their skills in communication strategies, pitch preparedness and investor readiness. This initiative will equip participants with the tools and insights needed to maximise their Web Summit Vancouver experience and capitalize on its potential to support their growth.
Our first R2WSV program will focus on Media and Spokesperson Training. As part of an effective media relations strategy, key spokespeople need to be ready and confident to deliver key messages to the media and their audiences. Our media training session provides attendees with the essential knowledge and skills to help them confidently communicate their unique communication priorities. As industry experts, our media coaches provide information on navigating interviews, the role of the spokesperson, an overview of the media landscape, interview techniques, and how to prepare for various types of media questions. Attendees will leave the session feeling more prepared to give successful interviews with any media type.
