Press Accreditation for Global Ideas Forum

With four annual conferences under our belt, Global Ideas Forum continues to grow as we build a diverse community of global health innovators.

At the Forum you will find the next generation of global health leaders and innovators debating and engaging with delegates from a wide range of personal and professional backgrounds to shape the healthy futures of tomorrow.

Global Ideas Forum welcomes accredited journalists as our guests to write and broadcast about the important issues being discussed. While we do attempt to accommodate all requests, we need to ensure adequate coverage across a variety of media as well as considering relevance of media for our target audience.
