The COVID 19 pandemic is inflicting major financial damage on media organizations worldwide. Managers may find it hard to reverse the fall in advertising revenue, find new grants, or develop membership models. But there are practical measures that can be taken to stem the loss in revenue and survive the economic upheaval at hand.

Three experts share their practical advice to small and medium-sized media organizations:

Ross Settles, Adjunct Professor focused on digital media and entrepreneurship at the Journalism and Media Studies Center at the University of Hong Kong, has worked with media companies, large and small, to create the best mix of revenue sources.

Bridget Gallagher is a veteran fundraising consultant providing advice and support to US and international media clients.

Alan Soon is CEO of Splice which supports media start-ups in Asia, and advises both commercial and nonprofit media on sustainability and revenue.

This one-hour webinar is the fourth in a GIJN series, Investigating the Pandemic. Watch our Twitter feed @gijn and newsletter (https://bit.ly/3b37Ty9) for details of coming programs.
