Last year, over 10,000 people joined for Medium Day to learn from Medium’s community of writers and publications. We’re making a better internet, together, and this year’s Medium Day is a chance to see that internet embodied.

As our CEO Tony Stubblebine recently wrote about Medium’s mission:

The internet is broken and getting worse. It’s flooded with ads, spam, misinformation, disinformation, division, and hate.

But it doesn’t have to be that way. There is a healthy way to talk to each other that inspires, informs, empowers, and brings people together.

We’ll kick off at 9:00 a.m. EDT with a keynote from Tony, followed by a day of sessions focused on different tracks: programming, technology, identity, politics, climate, writing, culture, design, entreperneurship, self-improvement, and health.

Join us for a day that highlights just how good the internet can be and celebrates the Medium community.

As an attendee, you’ll have a range of sessions to go to over the course of the day, from our opening keynote to speaker sessions on the range of topics listed above. Sessions at Medium Day are very focused: A short talk from experts in their fields on a single subject, followed by a Q&A with the audience. We want you to walk away from each session having learned something new.

Check out the full schedule of speakers here.

Join us! We’re excited to build a better internet with you.

And see you at Medium Day.
