In 2016, the committee welcomed its first student member, Megan Davis, who was instrumental in the smooth running of the summer package. She is also a good example of how The Talent Tap is taking students forward; she has done a number of work experience packages with The Talent Tap with both established and entrepreneurial media companies and as a result of that she has just been selected for a Masters in Journalism. After her Masters, the strength of her CV and the confidence she has gained with The Talent Tap should ensure she is a truly competitive candidate for a top job in journalism. The inclusion of Megan on the committee is just one step in the process of empowering The Talent Tap students and turning The Talent Tap into a self-perpetuating alumni network of successful people.
