TORONTO, Canada-September 16, 2013-Masstech Group, whose solutions enable media companies to save, share and transform content into valuable assets, today announced at IBC 2013 (Stand 6.A10) that its Masstech for News media management solution is the first to integrate with the Inception News newsroom control system unveiled today by Ross Video. Masstech for News is the only solution that allows journalists to automatically archive, access, share and use a company's archived content directly from within popular newsroom system interfaces, including Associated Press ENPS, Avid iNEWS and Inception from Ross.
