Karl Matchett, Business & Money Editor at The Independent, shares how he spots newsworthy stories, what makes a media pitch work, and the mistakes PR and communications professionals should steer clear of. The session is interactive, so attendees can put their own questions directly to him.
Karl was appointed to the editor role in 2025. He covers UK and international business markets, finance and investment, personal finance, and the way business connects with technology and climate change. Before this, he was Assistant Sports Editor at The Independent.
Seats cost £50 and are limited to 50 PR professionals. When booking, you can submit a question for the journalists, and attendees will also have a chance to ask follow-up questions during the session.
