emmaTalks

#emmatalks is initiated to encourage discussion about timely topics that are relevant to the management of media. The first series of three #emmatalks took place in June 2021 via ZOOM as a solution to the effects of the pandemic that made it impossible for scholars to physically meet each other at #emmaSweden or anywhere else. The successful first series led to a second round of three #emmatalks in the fall of 2021. Since then, emma hosts #emmatalks on a wide variety of media management-related topics regularly. Announcements of scheduled #emmatalks can be found in the news section or on Facebook and LinkedIn.
