Join SOPA on Thursday, September 24th LIVE from Hong Kong for an exclusive interview with the winners of the SOPA 2020 Editorial Awards – Excellence in Business Reporting category.

Investigative reporters from The Wall Street Journal and South China Morning Post will take us through their process, how they locked down their sources, the risks they encountered and the challenges they had to overcome.
