FIPP World Media Congress 2025 The Global Summit for Media Leaders
September 23, 2025
The International Press Institute (IPI) will host the 2025 World Congress and Media Innovation Festival from 23 to 25 October in Vienna, gathering leading journalists, editors, and media innovators from across the globe. This year’s theme, “Defending the Future of Free Media,” underscores the urgent need to safeguard press freedom and strengthen journalism’s role in democratic societies.
The congress comes at a pivotal moment, coinciding with IPI’s 75th anniversary. It will serve as both a commemoration of seven decades of defending press freedom and a platform to chart the way forward for public-interest journalism. Sessions will address the most pressing challenges facing the media today, from disinformation and censorship to sustainability, innovation, and the safety of journalists worldwide.
Participants will engage in a mix of keynotes, debates, and workshops designed to foster resilience, solidarity, and collaboration. With high demand expected, registration closes on October 1, making early sign-up essential for those who wish to be part of this landmark gathering.
The IPI World Congress & Media Innovation Festival 2025 is more than an anniversary—it is a rallying point for the global media community to reflect, strategize, and commit to defending the future of free and independent journalism.
