Please note: all presentations will be in Eastern Standard Time zone.This year's Summit will be conducted fully online—tickets are free, and you'll just need a device and Internet access to participate! You'll be treated to two days of panels, lightning talks, workshops, and discussions about a wide array of #collaborativej topics and projects. This year's Summit will kick off on Thursday, May 14, with a morning 'Share + Learn' event with the Charlotte Journalism Collaborative, and an early afternoon workshop designed to help you build and improve your collaborative reporting efforts. All Summit attendees will then convene (digitally) in the late afternoon that day for a conversation about all the collaboration happening in North Carolina's news ecosystem. We'll reconvene online Friday for a full (and jam-packed!) day of keynote presentations, group discussions, and of course, rounds of our popular lightning talks. Note that we're not kidding when we say jam-packed; the Summit is designed to be a very fast-paced event that's full to the brim.
