Abstract

Finland has been among the very first nations to apply for practice theories of innovation journalism—journalism covering innovations. This essay is based on deep interviews since 2004 of all former Finnish innovation journalism fellows ( N = 9), and two surveys of undergraduate journalism students ( N = 16) who took part in the world's first innovation journalism courses for university students in Finland. We argue that a fellowship program is often a part of a larger professional process of change, and that innovation journalism education should mainly focus on mid-career journalists.
