ACADEMIC research and commentary website The Conversation says it is here to stay after securing enough income from universities to keep it afloat ahead of its $6 million start up funding running out.
So far 21 universities have signed up as fee payer. The site is also looking to entice more sponsors and donors, and is now tapping into the loyalty of its readers asking for reader donations. Development director Lisa Watts said about 500 readers have so far responded with donations from as little as $5 to as much at a few thousand dollars.
