Serialized podcasts have become a powerful opportunity for investigative journalism, allowing creators to explore major investigations in narrative and documentary audio traditions.

What are the advantages of audio for investigative work? What does it take to start working on serialized audio longform? In this panel you will meet three award winning journalists focussed on investigative mini series for an in depth discussion about the state of play in the market for investigative podcasts and what it takes to succeed in this medium.
