The latest addition to the program  is a new initiative – featuring a series of 28 off-the-record industry roundtables – to run concurrently with the four daily stages of conference sessions and stream of masterclass sessions.

The intimate conversations take place in the Mumbrella360 delegate lounge and will be hosted by conference presenters, Mumbrella editorial staff and other senior industry executives.

The sessions are designed for those interested in a particular topic to swap notes with their peers or who want to get time with key conference speakers in a more private environment.

The roundtables will also feature an opportunity to give feedback and guidance on Mumbrella’s own events, awards and content.
