The media industry is in the midst of a structural crisis, with many newsrooms cutting costs. However, there is hope: Independent, entrepreneurial news organisations are seeking to fill the void. What business models are they exploring? How can private, philanthropic, and government funders collaborate to support the newsrooms' journeys toward sustainability? What do founders need, and what drives funders' choices? In this chat, leaders from major journalism support organisations and newsrooms will discuss the learnings and next steps of strengthening public-value media in Europe with all participants.
