This panel explores the resurgence of high-trust, mission-driven journalism as the ultimate antidote to digital noise. The participants will share how three different media startups have paved their way to stability by moving away from the "reach-at-all-costs" model to build deep, sustainable relationships with their audiences through membership-driven business models, human voice and curation and prioritizing editorial integrity and community needs over the shifting whims of social media platforms. The panel is a roadmap for the next generation of publishers who believe that the future of media isn't just about surviving the AI wave, but about reclaiming the value of the human voice and the role of independent media in democracy. Moderated by Rozina Breen. Organised in association with Republik.
