The branded content project, a partnership between local media association and the local media consortium was funded by multiple investments from the meta journalism project and commenced in march 2019. It has since led multiple cohorts of advertising leaders from large and small local media outlets to learn tools and methods for branded/sponsored content development and revenue success. The project now offers pre-built, topic-based branded content modules that media outlets can use as starter kits for local clients.
