Collective Brain Equity


A few weeks ago, there was a meeting of the minds regarding our industry here in Chicago. Borrowing a page from politics, it was a journalism version of a town hall meeting. Standing room only, with plenty of opinions and discussion about the state of journalism now and beyond.

A plethora of ideas were tossed around from non-profit partnerships to the Dow Jones model of subscription-based content. Whatever your personal viewpoints on how to monetize the business moving forward, I would encourage more of these town hall-style chats. There is something to be said for collective brain power, especially when the ambition is innovation.

Anyone else in other markets holding an event like this?
