The conference NordMedia 2017, held in Tampere August 17–19, was the 23rd conference in a row. The national media and communication research associations in the Nordic countries have, in cooperation with Nordicom, arranged the conference every second year since 1973. The conference migrates between the Nordic countries, meaning that Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden host the conference every tenth year. Since 1979, all conferences have been documented by Nordicom.
