 Today's editors-in-chief have to be more than just editors: they've become innovators, entrepreneurs and the center of their communities. The 18th World Editors Forum, to be held in Vienna, Austria, in October, will help editors succeed in all of their new tasks.

The Editors Forum, the annual global event for chief editors and other senior newsroom personnel, has just announced its first confirmed speakers, including: Simon Kelner, editor-in-chief of the Independent in the United Kingdom; Scott Klein, editor of News Applications for ProPublica in the United States; Mathias Müller von Blumencron, editor-in-chief of Germany's Der Spiegel; Jim Roberts, assistant managing editor of The New York Times; and many others.
