SABEW Canada to hold first official event for Canadian business writers and editors

The Society of American Business Editors and Writers (SABEW) is launching a Canadian chapter and the organization will hold its first official event on Tuesday, September 30th from 6 pm to 8 pm at the Rotman School of Management.

The event will feature an hour-long talk by Bloomberg Executive Editor John McCorry about the state of business journalism and the lessons that Canadian journalists can learn from what’s been happening at Bloomberg and other U.S. media outlets.

You can register to attend here until registration closes on September 22nd. The event is free and refreshments will be served. A networking reception will follow the talk.

SABEW describes itself as an “independent, not-for-profit organization focused on enhancing business journalism across North America.” The Canadian chapter is developing its own version of the Best in Business contest — an annual awards program focused on excellence in business journalism.
