Greg Hadfield will be talking about how he came to be involved in Brighton & Hove Independent with a vision of helping to create "a 21st-century media platform for a 21st-century city."

He will touch on his 35-year career from typewriters and landlines to digital and open data - including his time as a trainee at Wakefield Express; chief reporter at Western Morning News/Western Evening Herald; news editor of The Sunday Times; senior investigative journalist at the Daily Mail; and head of digital development at Telegraph Media Group.

He will particularly focus on the importance of data-driven journalism and networks (both digital and real-world).

But mainly, he says: "I will talk about citizens!"
