Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Lined Up for RTS Cambridge Convention

The Royal Television Society (RTS) has added Hillary Rodham Clinton and Chelsea Clinton to the roster for the 2021 Cambridge Convention.

Hillary and Chelsea are set to speak in conversation with Dame Mary Beard. They will talk about what they see in the world, the stories that fascinate them and how their production company, HiddenLight, facilitates their global approach to storytelling.

The speaker lineup also includes England football manager Gareth Southgate, who will close the conference in conversation with broadcaster, journalist and author Clare Balding.

Theresa Wise, CEO at the Royal Television Society, said: “The eminent combination of Hillary and Chelsea Clinton in conversation with Mary Beard promises an erudite and unmissable session, and a great addition to our packed program of industry heavyweights who are set to share their insights on Broadcasting Britain. We are very much looking forward to welcoming all the speakers and the wider industry to Cambridge for what is set to be an impactful and thought-provoking set of sessions.”

Ben McOwen Wilson, managing director of YouTube UK and Ireland and chair of the RTS Cambridge Convention 2021, commented: “I am very much looking forward to this year’s convention and to welcoming RTS members back to Cambridge for what is set to be another thrilling event. I am particularly delighted to be welcoming Gareth Southgate OBE to deliver the conference’s closing keynote. As we all saw at this Summer’s Euros, Gareth and his young team embody the best of the diverse and inspirational talent that this country has to offer. As someone who has done so much to bring England together, I can think of no one better suited to close our discussions on how the industry must evolve and adapt to represent a more diverse, creative and genuinely representative modern Britain.”
