"School of Splice gives you knowledge as a learning program, network because it's community-led, and funding with grants to help you prototype." It's targeted towards "early-stage media startup founder, a media professional, or an early-stage newsroom" seeking to understand and create a monetisation strategy. The lessons include how to think about building a viable media business, how to build an audience, and how to manage workflow and operations.
