Nebrija Research Group on Media Innovation and Communication Acronym: Nebrija INNOMEDIA


Summary and Research Lines

Summary:The contemporary communication ecosystem, highly technologized and determined by media convergence and digital transformation, promotes the constant challenge of identifying benchmarks on which these processes are articulated. On this basis it would be essential to systematize their implications and effects on the media industry logics, new demands required for media professionals and the users' consumption habits. Nebrija INNOMEDIA research interests are built and focused on three study areas crosswise to this environment.

Main Research Lines:

  • 1. Innovation in production, marketing and digital distribution
  • 2. Digital and media literacy in connected environments
  • 3. Professional profiles and skills for the digital ecosystem
  • 4. Inclusion and representation in communication: gender, age and diversity.

The group remains permanently in touch within other universities, likewise with public and private institutions developing collaborative projects.
