What biz models can sustain local newsrooms in the long run?
Join the Lenfest Institute for Journalism and ONA Philadelphia on Tuesday, Oct. 22, at The Philadelphia Inquirer for a discussion on new journalism business models.
A few of Lenfest’s Local News Business Model Challenge grant recipients will present on their funded work for about five minutes each, with time for Q&A and open discussion. The grantees are a mix of newsrooms and startups that have been experimenting with different ways to make revenue to support journalism. See the full list of grantees here: https://www.lenfestinstitute.org/innovation-grants/
