  On Friday, May 11, speakers Juan, Media Consulting Group and André, Gesca Ltd, will explore the trend(傾向)towards free and closely-related newspapers, which is not only a European phenomenon, but has also appeared in North America.They will be followed by Leon Levitt, vice-president of digital media for Cox Newspapers, and others.They will address partnerships such as the one Yahoo! and several large U.S.newspaper companies have created, which are widely greeted as win-win for both organizations.
