What:
The Klein News Innovation Camp is an annual unconference on the future of news and journalism attended by more than 250 media professionals from across the mid-Atlantic, including major national, local and independent newsrooms. The day-long event is organized by the team behind news org Technical.ly with support from Temple University’s Klein College of Media and Communications.
Founded and organized by the team behind the news organization Technical.ly, the event has always mixed journalists with non-traditional information providers, including creators, data providers and others. The vibe is informal, friendly and geared toward action.
When:
The 16th annual Klein News Innovation Camp will now be held on Saturday, Nov. 8, 2025.
In recent years, the unconference has been held in the fall — though for the first few years it was in the spring. Most years, doors open at 9 a.m. and the first session starts at 10 a.m.
