<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Dear colleagues,</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">we would like
to warmly invite you to the Meet-Up <b>“Tokenizing Journalism: Media Viability
and the Promise of Blockchain”</b>,<i> </i>hosted by GIZ Blockchain Lab
and DW Akademie.</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif"><br>
Journalism is facing a severe funding crisis. With traditional business
models collapsing, news outlets are now feverishly testing new subscription
and business models alongside with advertising schemes – they increasingly
depend on alternative and innovative funding models. Blockchain optimists
proclaim that the technology holds the key to liberate journalism from
the clutches of populism and greed for profit, making it more democratic,
independent and credible. But can Blockchain deliver on these promises?
