our advisory board
MediaFutures established a high-level Advisory Board. Apart from collecting feedback on the overall vision and strategic directions pursued by the project, the main activity of the board was to offer assistance through their valuable expertise while providing innovative advice and dynamic perspectives.
The Advisory Board had eight members with different expertise in the field of journalism, media studies, disinformation, data use in art:
Payal Arora, Professor & Chair in Technology, Values and Global Media Cultures – Erasmus
Ariane Berthoin-Antal, Professor Emerita – WZB Berlin Social Science Center
Ruben Brave, CEO and Founder Entelligence B.V.
Marianna Bruschi, Chief Editor – GEDI Gruppo Editoriale

Laura Koesten, Postdoctoral Researcher – University of Vienna
Florian Weischer, Co Chairman – Weischer.Media
Massimo Russo, Chief Content Officer Italy – Hearst Magazines

The MediaFutures project brings together ten partners from six European countries (Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK) with multidisciplinary and complementary expertise as well as recognised track records in the respective domains of expertise and in cross-disciplinary collaboration.
MediaFutures thus builds upon the consortium’s expertise in running data entrepreneurship and media initiatives, while respecting the legal requirements and principles set by EU law, ensuring transparency, and inclusivity.
