Making public interest information financially sustainable.

We work with digital news publishers, creators, media funders and policymakers to improve the financial sustainability of information ventures in Europe and beyond.

Publishers & creators

We advise on audience revenues, commercial partnerships, business, product and content development and choosing the right technology.

Funders & investors

We work with the largest media funders and developers (private and public) on investment strategies, partner selection, due diligence and program implementation.

Policymakers

We work with decision-makers to secure fair, stable and equitable funding for digital media and to introduce new mechanisms like matching funds and investment subsidies.
