Adam Freeman, executive director of commercial at Guardian News & Media, told a conference in Oxford that the loss-making newspaper was moving towards an "open vision for journalism", whereby laypeople, who may not have any formal expertise, will be allowed key to the media group’s future.

“[It] is a collaboration between journalists within the building and experts out of the building ... who are experts because they care about the subject matter as much as we do. They don't have to be called professor," he said.
