Media Party University in Greater Buenos Aires was held in collaboration with Universidad Austral and Universidad Nacional de Lomas de Zamora. It was the first time that Media Party organized an event of this kind jointly with both a public and a private university.
Media Party partnered with Austral and UNLZ with the aim of encouraging students to explore, connect, and create in an environment of interdisciplinary collaboration.
More than 1,000 students, professors, and professionals from the northern and southern areas of Greater Buenos Aires came together to reflect and work on the future of the media industry.
