Overview

• The event will allow Pathos to build on existing partnerships and establish new relationships with key executives in North America's news, media and publishing sectors. This is essential to Pathos's aims of expanding its product range, increasing client lifetime value and client satisfaction, and growing margins.
• Omar Hamdi, founder and CEO of Pathos, is chairing a series of roundtable discussions, with participants from publications including the Associated Press, Reuters, BBC, Fox, The Guardian, Daily Mail, POLITICO, The New York Post and The Washington Post.
• Pathos is sponsoring a panel discussion titled "Gatekeepers of Reality: How do we keep news real in the AI era?", where Omar will also be speaking alongside guests such as the UK Editor of Press Gazette.

Omar Hamdi, Founder and CEO of Pathos, said:

"Our participation in Press Gazette's Media Strategy Network USA conference reflects Pathos's commitment to leading the conversation on how AI can be integrated at scale without compromising the standards that define great journalism. As we continue to deepen our relationships with top-tier publishers, we gain sharper insight, stronger collaboration, and greater alignment on responsible innovation. Those stronger partnerships enable us to build higher-quality products that protect editorial integrity while driving revenue opportunities, strengthening the long-term scalability of our platforms, and potentially translating into more cross-selling opportunities and stronger profit margins for our business."

"Our events are all about bringing together leaders across the news ecosystem - journalists, product people, technologists and commercial folk - to figure out new ways to make quality content pay in the digital age.
