About this event
LWV of Palo Alto Lunch with League Speaker Event
Local news is a cornerstone of our democracy, but it has been in crisis nationwide. At its 2024 convention, the League of Women Voters recognized that the decline of local news is a threat to democracy. Hear from Adam Dawes, CEO of Embarcadero Media, how the business has changed in recent years and how Embarcadero Media is evolving to meet these trends and preserve the Palo Alto Weekly, Almanac, Mountain View Voice, and Redwood City Pulse for years to come.
Embarcadero Media serves a population of more than 500,000 people on the Midpeninsula and the East Bay's Tri-Valley.
