In my column yesterday, I promised a big addition to the 2025 BNM Summit lineup. Today, I am excited to share the news with you. The great Glenn Beck will join us in the big apple for this year’s Summit.
Glenn Beck has been a force of nature in the news media industry. He’s left his mark on everything he’s touched from radio to television to digital. He is a leading voice for conservatism and a staunch defender of the Constitution, traditional values, individual liberties, and free markets. His radio program is heard across hundreds of radio stations daily courtesy of Premiere Networks. He’s additionally consumed digitally through TheBlaze, the 24/7 news, information and opinion network which he owns and launched in 2011.
Known for his quick wit, candor, and commanding on-air presence, Glenn has generated large audiences across all mediums, delivering high ratings and revenue in the process. In addition to possessing strong views on politics and everyday issues, he is also well versed in every aspect of the media industry. I’m eager to sit down down with him at 1:30pm on Day 1 of the Summit, and pick his brain on a variety of issues.
The 2025 BNM Summit presented by Newsmax is going to be a big event. After two years of growth in Nashville and Washington D.C., we’re excited to bring the conference for the first-time to NYC. Eight partners have already signed on, and additional opportunities are available. For more details, contact Stephanie Eads at Stephanie@BarrettMedia.com.
Unlike our past two events, this year’s event will be shorter. The Summit festivities begin with the Kickoff Party at the Park Central Hotel on Tuesday night September 2nd. Day 1 of the Summit then takes place on Wednesday September 3rd from 9a-5p inside The Ailey Theater on West 55th Street. Immediately after Day 1, we’ll host an After Party from 6-8. We then cap it off on Thursday September 4th with 2-hours of content inside The Ailey Theater from 10a-12p. The Premiere Networks Awards ceremony will close the show.
In addition, this is a special year for our brand as September marks 10-years in business for Barrett Media. To celebrate the occasion, we are throwing ‘The Barrett Bash‘, a special invite-only anniversary party on Thursday September 4th from 5p-8p. All attendees to the 2025 BNM Summit will receive a ticket to attend the private event. The Bash will unite professionals from all areas of the industry including news, sports, music, and more.
Another big speaker announcement will be made tomorrow morning regarding the 2025 BNM Summit. This one is a top ranking executive. Keep an eye out for it.
