We are excited to invite you to the* Media Platformisation and Small Nations* Conference. The conference is part of EuromediApp-project “European media and platform policy”, funded by EU’s Jean Monnet Network program and participated by seven universities from different European countries. In Finland, the event is organized jointly by the EuramediApp network and two Finnish Academy-funded research projects, CORDI (“Communication Rights in the Age of Digital Disruption”) and MAPS (“Media platforms and social accountability: Dynamics, practices, and discourses”).

Considering the ubiquity of digital platforms in our everyday lives, their influence on public life in Finland and in Europe is hardly discussed. The aim of this conference is to offer a platform to discuss and assess how the advance of the platforms – or the process of platformisation – is reflected in Finland and beyond its borders. Although the provision of news and journalism-related content is only a small part of these platforms’ activities, it will be the focus of the conference.

We have assembled an outstanding expert panel to cover the themes. Our keynote speakers include:

Professor Steven Livingston (George Washington University, School of Media and Public Affairs)
Professor Terry Flew (University of Sydney)
Professor Anja Bechmann (Aarhus University)
Professor Marko Milosavljevic (University of Ljubljana)
Professor Natali Helberger (University of Amsterdam)

The programme consists of two days. The first day focuses on academic research on the theme and the second day is dedicated to an international panel as well as a stakeholder roundtable on Finland. The event is hybrid. The first day is fully online and open for all. The second day is a blend of an open virtual event and an in-person event by invitation only.
