Launch parties, giant karaoke nights, captivating debates… Grab your calendar—it’s going to be a blast. Whether the event is a complement to published content or just a good excuse to get together, today we’re offering you three venues and three different vibes for these media outlets that are breaking the mold.
Mystery Nights While We Wait for the Days to DawnWe
often feel lost when our favorite series comes to an end. Evenings spent following the adventures of our favorite characters—and now it’s already time to say goodbye. To help us let go of our obsessions, Les Jours has the solution. Evening talks with the authors of the stories—a sort of spoken “making-of” that lets readers ask all their questions. This extension makes sense as a way to bring these investigations to a close, together with the very people for whom they were written.
Live Magazine: When the Event Becomes the News
There are some stories we prefer to tell face-to-face. At Live Magazine, that’s exactly what we do best. For one evening, journalists, photographers, and illustrators take turns on stage, revealing both their secrets and the behind-the-scenes details of their investigations. Facing these storytellers—as if at a show—the audience enjoys the beauty of fleeting confidences, neither filmed nor recorded. While 99% of the stories told are true, the subjectivity is 100% acknowledged.
The Politico-style networking event—here, people come mainly to build their networks. The events consist of thematic roundtable discussions where “global opinion leaders and influencers come to discuss key issues, big ideas, and trends related to a given topic.” At the most recent Politico Europe conferences, topics included the role of governments in medical innovation, the place of e-commerce in the circular economy, and hydrogen. These are specialized topics aimed at Politico’s equally select audience, which has become the benchmark for political coverage.
