Rogues gallery to talk media and PR in Hong Kong

The who's who of Hong Kong PR folks and media will gather tonight for the latest Hong Kong PR Network shindig. I'll be running a panel discussion on "Media relations best practice in the new age of journalism" featuring such luminaries as David Croasdale, Tom Crampton and Jay Oatway. Will also be inviting questions from the floor.

Should be an interesting discussion as we tackle topics such as:

With a 24 hour news cycle and the challenge of adding local value to stories that can easily be Googled, how do you think PR people can best help Hong Kong journalists?

Many traditional media outlets are putting greater emphasis on online through blogs, web-only content and increasingly video. What types of content do you you think PR people should be creating to help meet this need?

What do you think Hong Kong journalists most want from PR agencies or inhouse specialists that they're not getting today?

What impact do you think the global financial crisis will have on journalism in Hong Kong?

Looking forward to a good turnout. If you're in Hong Kong, come along. Will be at Dublin Jacks in Lan Kwai Fong from 7pm.
