Write for The Meridian.
The Meridian connects ideas across disciplines and cultures. We’re looking for writers who bring a perspective from their field, their community, or their culture: scholars, journalists, founders, and community builders around the world.
Where your story could live
Founder's Vision
Before the headlines, there was a vision.
Interviews with founders at the start of their journey, followed over time. Some will succeed, some won't, and both have something to teach.
Builder Spotlight
Meet the people making things happen—and see how they’re doing it.
Students building apps, artists staging exhibitions, researchers making tools, organizers bringing people together. Each story follows one project: what they tried, what they learned, and how you can get involved.
Conference Insights
From different rooms, a broader perspective.
Reporting ideas and conversations from conferences across industries, and connecting what they reveal.
Opinion
Different perspectives. Arguments worth considering.
Essays and commentary on the ideas, institutions, and choices shaping our world.
Crossings
Old ideas, new rooms.
Classic ideas from different cultures and eras, applied to the questions of today: strategy, markets, leadership, politics, and how we live and work.
The Meridian Newsletter
Ideas gathered. Perspectives shared.
Ideas, observations, and conversations from across industries and institutions, delivered to your inbox.
