The first performance at the Forum, which sets the tone for everything that happens in the next two days, falls to the President of the The Novomedia Association Ruslan Kukharchuk: "This year we are talking about personalization.
What is important to know about the concept of a journalist? I have identified three main criteria:
1. Intelligence (education, outlook, sharp mind). 2. Charisma (personal unique features, the gift of God, which stands out among the others). 3. Values (understanding of their responsibility to the audience)." The organizer of the Forum said: “Christian values are not only for life but also for our profession. Our main task – is to serve the audience.”
 At the Forum welcomed the Deputy Ambassador of Israel to Ukraine Emil Ben-Naftaly. “I'm three months in Ukraine and have heard many good things about The Novomedia Association.” He also recalled the celebration of the 25th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Ukraine and Israel. “Our two nations have much in common. We are happy to exchange experiences between the two countries.” In conclusion, he wished the good of the Forum and thanked for the invitation. The long tradition of the event is attended by a priest for the opening of the Forum. Pastoral blessing this year made a senior minister of Irpin Bible Church – Mykola Romaniuk. “Above all else, guard your heart, for out of it flow the springs of life,” – the pastor quoted a verse from the book of Proverbs. The pastor urged journalists to be objective, always tell the truth and he prayed.
Elena Frolyak completed the morning block. She is a Chief of the Information Officer of the national TV channel ICTV. Her advice to young journalists was accurate, simple and indisputably running the secrets of success in professional activities. The moderator asked her: “What is eternal value for you?”. She replied: “Great value for me – a man and a family,” – said Elena Frolyak.
