Young Leaders Scholarship

Applications are now open for the Young Leaders Scholarship, which was created to increase interest in the B2B publishing world with younger editors who are advancing in their editorial careers.

The scholarship allows younger editors - who might otherwise be unable - to attend an educational B2B editorial event.

This year's scholarship is to attend the American Society of Business Publication Editors (ASBPE) Editorial Conference, scheduled for 24 - 25 July in Kansas City, Missouri, US.

The conference contains an evening networking event on 23 July, followed by two full days of intensive editorial sessions on topics that will include:

Useful seminars, panel discussions, and workshops targeted at editors of business, trade, and association print and web publications.

A chance to network with fellow business editors in an interactive setting designed for editors.

These scholarships are open to all business editors, including print and web, who work outside of the US.

Scholarships pay the conference and hotel room costs for up to two worthy applicants per year, along with up to US$500 towards airfare costs.

Transportation to and from the conference, any non-conference meals, and other incurred costs are the responsibility of the winners or their individual publishing companies. The scholarship is not transferable to other persons or events. Applicants must meet the following qualifications:

Are 30 years of age or younger on or about 23 July

Are currently a business publication editor, and have been so for a minimum of two years

Candidacy is sponsored by their publication's chief editor

Plan to continue in the business press as a career
