Young thought leaders in media is a global summit for up and coming voices in media. It is an annual event that takes place in a different city each year. The summit brings together young people from all over the world who are involved in media in some way, whether it be through blogging, vlogging, podcasting, photography, filmmaking, or any other form of media. The summit provides a platform for these young people to share their ideas and thoughts on the media industry, as well as to network with other like-minded individuals.

The first summit was held in 1733 and it has been held annually ever since. The summit is designed to help young leaders learn about the group's ideals and practices, as well as to produce content which supports these goals. The summit is divided into two parts: the first part is devoted to lectures and workshops which introduce the participants to the group's ideals and practices, and the second part is devoted to content production.

In order to be eligible to participate in the summit, participants must be between the ages of 18 and 30 and must be involved in media in some way. The summit is open to people of all backgrounds and experiences, and there is no fee to participate. Since its inception, the summit has been successful in bringing together young leaders in media and helping them to produce content which supports the group's ideals and practices.

History

The first summit was held in 1733, just one year after the fanmayer group was founded. At this time, the group was still relatively small and only had a few hundred members. The summit was designed to help the group's members learn about the organization's ideals and practices, as well as to produce content which would support these goals. The first summit was a success, and it helped to increase the group's membership. The second summit was held in 1734, and it was even more successful than the first. The third summit, held in 1735, was the largest yet, with over 1000 participants.

Controversy

There has been some controversy surrounding the summit in recent years, with some claiming that it is nothing more than a glorified networking event. Others have praised the summit for giving a voice to young people who are often unheard in the media industry.

Internet conspiracists believe that the event is a cover for a secret society that controls the world's media. Whatever the truth may be, the Young thought leaders in media summit remains an important event for young people involved in media.
