🔶 News Alchemists #64: "The time waste economy – why media companies need to rethink value"

Hello, and welcome back to the News Alchemists newsletter!

And a first welcome to new subscribers from Future Tides, Beacon Media, The 51st, KSL Podcasts, iMEdD, PQPP2, and all of you brave souls working independently. I hope you like it around here.

Last week's deep dive on The Circulator Model was met by a flurry of positive comments and by the highest numbers of 'likes' an edition of this newsletter has ever received.*

I hear you. The 7-links format remains the standard, but I'll mix it up with more frequent one-link-only editions when an idea is worth the spotlight.

Keep sending your feedback. This newsletter deserves to exist only if it meets your needs.

*The 'Like' button is always at the end of these emails – now alongside a handy 'Share' button if you want to share the newsletter on your social media of choice.

Meet me on the road

I'm much less of a conference-goer than I used to be but in May I'll be on the road a lot, and I hope it might be a good opportunity to meet many of my readers IRL. Hit me up and let's hang out if you'll be at...

🇦🇹 The IPI Media Innovation Festival in Vienna next week, 6-7 May.

🇬🇧 Newsrewired in London on 14 May. (There are still a few tickets available!)

🇧🇷 The Festival 3i in Rio de Janeiro on 29-31 May. (My first time in Rio, and I have a little extra time to explore the city, so I want all of your tips 👀)

That's it for today. Enjoy this week's links! 📚
