About This Conference

This session focused on "The Authority Economy," helping business schools navigate a post-truth landscape by positioning faculty as high-trust experts. With the UK media undergoing significant shifts in digital-first reporting, attendees worked directly with editors from the FT and the BBC to understand how academic research can break through the 24-hour political news cycle.
