Over the years, our members have enjoyed our chapter's partnership with local journalists especially when the opportunity to pitch comes around! This year, to create more opportunities for more attendees to pitch and meet local news leaders, we're introducing Speed Pitching!

At this fast-paced, high-energy event, you'll have the opportunity to speak one-on-one with reporters, editors, and producers from major media outlets in our area. Pitch them your stories, or just introduce yourself and make a connection for the future. Either way, you have three minutes before it's time to move on to the next table!

Register ASAP to be sure you have a chance to make your pitch! Limited spots are available, and the pitching lineup is based on the order in which participants register.

Confirmed journalists include:
  1. Erik Spanberg, CBJ, managing editor
  2. Patrick Wilson, Charlotte Observer, public safety and courts editor
  3. Glenn Burkins, Qcitymetro, founder and publisher
  4. Amanda Cooper, WSOC, evening news producer
  5. Kristen Miranda, WBTV, managing editor of lifestyle content
  6. Alexandria Sands, Axios Charlotte, reporter
  7. Brian Dresdow, WBTV Executive News Producer
