With the magazine market more congested than ever before, what do independent publishers have to do to stand out from the crowd? And as an ardent supporter of emerging talent, what does he think the next generation can do to embrace technology while harnessing the publishing paradigm of the past?

“A masterful storyteller, we’re delighted that Terry will be speaking at The Industry’s next event in July,” explains The Industry’s managing director, Courtney Blackman. “You’d be hard pushed to find an editor working in the magazine business today that can remember a time when Terry was not central to the industry. The meeting will chronicle Terry’s professional journey from Walthamstow to Manhattan, including the unveiling of some never-seen-before footage from Terry’s infamous archive.”
