Have you developed specialised knowledge in a field

that you'd like to share with a broad and interested audience?

We want your opinion.

The internet is a noisy place.

Twenty years ago there were 23 blogs

on the whole of the internet.

Today, there are half a billion, still less than a third

of all websites.

That's an annual two and half trillion gigabytes

of internet traffic, predicted to double

in the next few years.

Every day brings 500m Instagram stories and 137m blog posts

on Tumblr alone.

Every minute, 400 hours of YouTube video is uploaded.

And since I started speaking, over 300,000 tweets

have hit the Twitter sphere.

Each of these brings its own stream of comments.

Many are thoughtful.

But many are personal, petty, and polarising.

It's explosive, and attention is saturated.

Your average blogger spends three hours

curating a post that the average reader sees

for all of 37 seconds.

Their focus is stolen by adverts, and fake news,

and bright flashing clickbait.

It's getting harder, and harder, and harder to be heard.

We're making space on our platform

for informed, intelligent argument.

And we want you, our viewers, to help provide it.

We have hundreds of thousands of subscribers on YouTube

and millions of readers on FT.com.

Business leaders, politicians, and academics

from around the world click on our content millions of times

every single day.

Send us a clip or short paragraph pitching your idea.

And your voice could be heard over the rabble.
