Online Seminar | Trade press editing with Kate Oppenheim

Wednesday, 17th June from 8-9pm BST

Online via Zoom

Kate Oppenheim is an experienced B2B journalist, having held the editorships of leading weeklies, monthlies, quarterlies and even a daily, as the channel editor of Sky’s The Pub Channel television in the early 2000s. In recent times she has helped launch a weekly digital newsletter and in 2019 her company, KO-Media, relaunched the BII’s quarterly membership magazine, BII News. Kate was the first female editor of the once leading trade paper, The Publican, and will be sharing her thoughts on what it takes to be a successful editor.

To RSVP, email secretary@beerguild.co.uk and you will be provided with the Zoom link. Please note we will be limiting the seminar to 25 members.

 

Future seminars:

Are you an experienced member willing to volunteer an hour of your time to share your insight on blogging, editing, writing press releases, podcasting, photography, beer judging or tasting or any other relevant skillset to our members?

Please contact Guild Chair Pete (petebrownsemail@googlemail.com) or Guild Secretary Natalya (secretary@beerguild.co.uk) with your interest and we’ll schedule you in.

In normal circumstances, the Guild pays standard going rate to tutors and presenters and we’d never ask Guild members to work for free, but in this instance, we are asking for members to volunteer their time, if able, to share their skills with other members.

Any questions, please contact secretary@beerguild.co.uk.
