Around the world, people are building independent news- and journalism-related technology and content businesses - and investors are investing in them. How do these investors see the world, how do they think about investments, and what advice do they have on building viable journalism businesses?
Our panel of four experienced media investors, entrepreneurs and innovators have built, supported, and invested in a wide range of independent media organisations and businesses around the world, from Latin America and the USA to Europe, the Middle East and Asia. They'll share insights on the new opportunities and dilemmas of investment in independent media, including: how viable is it and what other investment models exist, where are they seeing opportunities for growth, what new red-lines and compromises are they encountering, and how do they expect their investments to make money?
A rare and fascinating opportunity to see the world through their eyes...
