Trinity's Bailey to speak at PCC Annual Luncheon

Trinity Mirror chief executive Sly Bailey will be the guest speaker at the 182nd Printers' Charitable Corporation (PCC) Annual Luncheon later this year.

This PCC event is set to take place on Thursday 5 November at Stationers' Hall in London. Tickets are priced at £85 and the price includes a drinks reception and a three-course lunch.

Bailey currently oversees Trinity Mirror’s portfolio of more than 140 regional newspapers, five national newspaper titles and 400 websites.

In 2002, she received the PPA Marcus Morris Award for her outstanding contribution to the publishing industry and for the past year she has been a key contributor to the debate on Lord Carter’s Digital Britain report which was released last week.

She has been named by Fortune magazine as one of the top 50 most powerful businesswomen outside the US and one of the top 25 businesswomen by the Financial Times.

It is possible that Bailey will be joined on the list in coming years by the current editor of The Sun, Rebekah Wade, who has just been unveiled as the new chief executive of News International.

Wade will be responsible for the day-to-day operation of The Sun, The Times, The Sunday Times, News of the World and Thelondonpaper.

She will begin in her new role in September. A new editor of The Sun is set to be announced soon.
