Media Coverage
With over 45 speakers at BIL there’s more going on than any single human can handle. Numerous media groups will make a valiant attempt to capture what goes on.
If you are press or media (traditional or social) BIL can help. We’ve made arrangements for quiet rooms for interviews and dedicated internet access. We also have a limited number of university interns who can assist during the event. Please email Todd Huffman to make further arrangements.
