Title: Highereddive ?
Post by: simpleSimon on July 14, 2021, 06:16:28 AM
The Chronicle is still the gold standard for news and information (including job ads) in academe, but over the years others have muscled in on their territory including:

https://www.insidehighered.com/
https://diverseeducation.com/
https://www.jbhe.com/
https://www.higheredjobs.com/?locale=en_US

Now comes https://www.highereddive.com/  Apparently this is a sister site to a suite of Dive news websites including:
•   Banking Dive  https://www.bankingdive.com/
•   BioPharma Dive  https://www.biopharmadive.com/
•   CFO Dive  https://www.cfodive.com/
•   CIO Dive  https://www.ciodive.com/
•   Construction Dive
•   Cybersecurity Dive
•   Food Dive
•   Grocery Dive
•   Healthcare Dive
•   HR Dive
•   K-12 Dive
•   Marketing Dive
•   MedTech Dive
•   Payments Dive
•   Restaurant Dive
•   Retail Dive
•   Smart Cities Dive
•   Social Media Today
•   Supply Chain Dive
•   Transport Dive
•   Utility Dive
•   Waste Dive

Does anyone know who is behind Dive? When it was founded? Where their funding comes from?  Is there room/demand for another higher education news website?

I didn't know anything about highereddive, until now. Thanks for posting it. The higher ed news that they curate seems much less click-bait/tabloid than insidehighered, which is enough reason to give this newcomer a look.
