Lucas and Luna dive into the story of Agence France-Presse (AFP), a news wire founded in 1835 that faced near-collapse in the late 1990s. They explore how a cooperative model, a pivot to multimedia, and a bet on fact-checking turned a struggling telegraph-age relic into a profitable digital-native news service. With context from today's markets—where the S&P 500 sits at 7,431 and the Iran peace deal is driving a risk-on rally—they ask what legacy institutions can learn from AFP's survival playbook. A concrete look at restructuring that isn't about cost-cutting, but about redefining your core value. #AgenceFrancePresse #AFP #NewsWire #BusinessTurnaround #Restructuring #LegacyBusiness #DigitalTransformation #FactChecking #Journalism #CooperativeModel #MediaSurvival #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #TheTurnaroundPodcast #Business #History #Innovation #Resilience Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
