Two biz reporters receive National Press Foundation fellowships for Wharton

The National Press Foundation has awarded fellowships for two journalists to attend the Wharton Seminars for Business Journalists.

Samantha Delouya of Business Insider and Sally Ho of the Associated Press will attend the Oct. 17–19 seminars in Philadelphia at the Wharton School.

Each year, NPF provides funds for two journalists to attend the seminars at no cost to them. NPF has sent more than 45 journalists to the Wharton Seminars over a relationship spanning two decades. The fellowship was not offered in 2020 or 2021 due to the pandemic.

Delouya is a business news reporter with a focus on technology companies, based in Los Angeles. She previously worked as markets producer at CNBC, covering daily stock and bond moves. She began her journalism career working on CNBC’s breaking news desk. She holds a bachelor’s degree in industrial and labor relations from Cornell University.

Ho is a global investigative correspondent based in Seattle and focused on corporate accountability. Previously, she was the Las Vegas breaking news supervisor who led award-winning coverage of the worst mass shooting in modern U.S. history, and has also covered national education, child welfare, the business of philanthropy and surfing at the Tokyo Olympics. She’s a former refugee immigrant, longtime member of the Asian American Journalists Association, and data trainer with the Ida B. Wells Society for Investigative Reporting.
