Meet & Connect

Real conversations. Real opportunities. Right here in Madrid.

FIPP World Media Congress is more than a conference: it’s where connections are made. Whether you’re here to exchange ideas, spark partnerships, or simply meet the people shaping the future of media, we’ll make it easy to connect with purpose.

Networking that works

Congress brings together a global mix of publishers, platforms, creators, and change-makers. And we’ve made sure you won’t miss the chance to meet the right people.

This year, we’re once again using a smart, web-based networking platform to help you plan and manage your meetings before you arrive.
