Women In Media

Women in Media was originally launched on International Women’s Day 8 March 2005 to both increase the number of women working in the digital media industry in Sussex, and to support those who already do. The initiative has continued with an annual conference and semi-regular networking events. The Women In Media website includes podcasts and interviews with females working in digital media.
