Independent news producer in India focuses on delivering stories

nxtedition has supplied a complete newsroom system to Collective Newsroom, based in New Delhi, India. The new facility delivers high quality journalism to digital, audio and television, in multiple languages, including Hindi, Tamil, Gujarati, Marathi, Punjabi and Telugu as well as English.

Collective Newsroom was founded by four senior BBC journalists based in India, with the aim of creating high-quality impartial news services in seven languages. It also provides all the news content for the BBC services in India, its largest international market. The company now embraces more than 250 journalists across the country.

We want to create a newsroom operation that is future-proof and flexible, as well as providing all the collaboration we need between our journalists, editors and producers, said Atul Garg, Head of Technology at Collective Newsroom. We saw in nxtedition the functionality we really need, including realtime data and graphics integration, as well as integrated workflows wherever our journalists are working.

This implementation uses the hybrid capabilities of nxtedition, using the cloud where it is most relevant. It means the solution is completely scalable, allowing it to respond to rapidly changing news agendas. Designed from the ground up to be a story-focused news production platform, nxtedition provides simple and intuitive access to sophisticated workflows, enhancing collaboration and using automation to eliminate repetitive tasks and

give the journalists the time and tools to create accurate, engaging and informative content.

We chose nxtedition over other vendors because its all-in-one integrated platform supports both digital and TV production, Garg said. Its powerful functionality and ease of use makes it fast to adopt, and its architecture makes it future-proof, whatever the challenges the market brings to us in future. That is what really sets it apart in the competitive broadcast automation space.

We have the best journalistic talent in India, but we have to stay competitive in the ever-evolving media landscape, he added. nxtedition ensures our production capabilities remain top-notch across all platforms.

Roger Persson, Head of Sales and Marketing at nxtedition said Collective Newsroom is a very important player and unique in the world of news. It covers the vast and diverse country of India, delivering journalism of the highest standards, in multiple languages, to multiple platforms for the BBC, surely one of the most trusted and respected broadcasters in the world.

We are very proud to work with Collective Newsroom, providing a technology environment which is open and flexible, scalable and approachable, creative and reliable.
