Twenty-five journalists and eight journalism educators from around the world are coming to Arizona State University next month to participate in the preeminent training program in business journalism.

The Donald W. Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism at ASU’s Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication is hosting the 11th annual Reynolds Week Jan. 4-6.

Participants will hear from national experts on topics that include interpreting financial statements and discovering stories in statistics as well as the art of conducting local and national business investigations. Speakers will include high-profile journalists such as Steven Levy, author and editor-in-chief of tech-business blog Backchannel, and Leslie Wayne, a longtime former business reporter for The New York Times.

Reynolds Week serves journalists wanting a deep dive on a variety of money-related topics, and university and college faculty members who teach business journalism or are planning to incorporate money coverage in existing courses. This year’s journalists and professors come from 19 states, the District of Columbia, and six countries.

Reynolds Week is made possible by the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation, a national philanthropic organization that founded the Reynolds Center to improve the quality of business reporting across the U.S. Reynolds fellows receive a fellowship valued at $1,500 that covers tuition, hotel accommodation and meals.
