Jodie Hopperton (FORE:media, Founder)

Jodie Hopperton is a British media executive based in Los Angeles. In a career spanning more than 15 years, she has worked with technology startups in addition to corporate roles with Trinity Mirror and the New York Times. She has also worked with nonprofits such as the World Association of Newspapers and the Global Editors Network.

She lived in Paris, Madrid and London before moving to Los Angeles in 2015, where she founded FORE:media in the belief that Los Angeles has become every bit as inspiring as Silicon Valley – probably more so.

Realising that Los Angeles isn’t an easy city to understand, she recently wrote Los Angeles Reinvented to demystify the city and to convey to the wider world the scale and depth of the innovation taking place there.

You can often find Jodie on stage as a conference moderator or giving informative talks.
