Introduction. This article analyses entrepreneurial journalism as a phenomenon that has emerged in Spain"s news media industry and has developed strongly in the sports news. Method. The analysis is based on the identification and analysis of the media startups launched since 2008 and on the results of the 2013 Report of the Journalistic Profession published by the Press Association of Madrid. Results. Sports journalism is a field that favours innovation and the creation of a diversity of projects. Two tendencies stand out: hyperlocal start-ups and niche information products. Discussion. The article examines the contribution of these projects to the current structure of the journalism industry, as well as their viability, characteristic business models, and common patterns. Conclusions. Sports journalism is still at an expansive phase and involves new ways of managing internet-based businesses that rely heavily on the personal brand of journalists, as well as new thematic areas and contents.
El periodismo emprendedor es el fenómeno observado en la industria periodística después de 2008. Consiste en el conjunto de iniciativas lideradas por periodistas para la creación de nuevos medios promovidos por ellos mismos. Están alejados del modelo industrial cuyo accionariado corresponde a grandes grupos de comunicación o a empresas ajenas al sector. Se caracterizan por la primacía del ámbito digital (contenidos, aplicaciones) en detrimento de la estructura analógica (papel). Por último, se emplea intensamente la marca personal del periodista como motor de la promoción a través de las redes sociales. El fenómeno es mundial.
