FUTURE OF NONFICTION VIDEO

Convening the brightest minds to collectively question what is and isn’t working in nonfiction video.

At the inaugural Future of Nonfiction Video in February 2025, we shared ideas and problem-solved with 400+ incredible nonfiction storytellers over two unforgettable days. The depth of connection, collaboration, and talent represented was electrifying. The future of the industry is bright — because of you!

Check out the full scope of our discussions, along with our guest facilitators here.

FONV is powered by Knight Foundation, hosted by Columbia Journalism School.

Coming again in 2026.

Stay tuned for more details.
