Reach the decision-makers

Since its inception, members have relied on the BEA Annual Convention as one of their main resources for information on the latest issues, products and technologies that will impact their profession.

As they make their way through the exhibits, these professionals search for the tools that will help them be more effective in the daily management of their careers.

Advertising Opportunities:

BEA has three quality publications to help you reach attendees at the Annual Convention and throughout the year.

The Convention Program contains the meeting, program and events schedule. It is distributed to all registrants as they pick up their credentials. It serves as a guide throughout the programs and special events that occur during the Annual Convention and serves as a valuable reference after the meeting is over. BEA members use the program to track vendors once they have returned to their universities and need to find resources that can help make them more productive on a daily basis.

The Journal of Radio Studies: The only scholarly radio research publication in the world, and it contains information on topics such as programming, personalities, technologies, regulations and the future of radio; in addition to commentary and reviews by scholars and professionals from the radio industry.

The Journal of Broadcasting & Electronic Media: A scholarly journal published quarterly by BEA. Considered one of the leading publications in the communication field, the Journal contains timely articles about new developments, trends and research in electronic media written by academicians, researchers and other electronic media professionals.

Advertising in any of these publications supports your exhibits program and gives you added visibility throughout the year.

Through these varied publications, a wide range of advertising opportunities is available to fit every need and budget.
