T2B PRESS PASS TO JPM: A PRE-CONFERENCE CONVERSATION WITH TOP REPORTERS

As we gear up for the JP Morgan Healthcare Conference (JPM) in January, it's time to talk to a few of the top reporters to hear what's on their mind and how we can support the stories they're looking to tell.

Open to all T2B community members, this is a panel with life science journalists and JPM veterans, Oliver Barnes (FT), Brad Loncar (BiotechTV), and Gabrielle Masson (Fierce Biotech). We'll explore their intended focus areas at JPM '25, the trends that will pique their interest for next year, and the sources and expertise they're looking for. We've scheduled this event to aid the T2B communicator community in forging meaningful connections with reporters right when outreach for JPM interactions begins.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Understand the trends and topics that will dominate life science reporting in 2025.

  • Discover the companies and expertise journalists are eager to engage with.

  • Strategize your outreach effectively by knowing who to target for JPM meetings.
