European business today is highly segmented and widely unrecognised beyond national borders. Business news mostly bear national relevance but hold the potential to spread cooperation opportunities and business changes towards an economically and socially integrated Europe.
NEDINE is initiated to build a network to integrate multiple European national information sources consisting of participating news agencies, PR agencies and independent journalists into an international information service for news professionals and decision makers. The project aims at providing a network of news exchange and distribution that supports mutual awareness of relevant topics and information areas within all European countries. With its main focus on widespread availability and affordability for all partners it addresses news providers to transport national and international information to the relevant target group, regardless of the origin, nationality and financial capability of the information provider. A sophisticated news platform and a high performing distribution network based on convenient digital news exchange technologies, not only targeted at newsrooms but aimed at reaching as many business leaders and decision makers as possible directly and personalized at their desktop, will bring business in Europe to a new level.
The project shall integrate independent journalism work and company-oriented business news to form a comprehensive international information service for business leaders. Basic online content management software shall be extended with features for multilinguality, XML-like standard formats and personalized distribution. Current distribution technologies shall be extended to reach information professionals at multiple end user devices in most current formats. NEDINE will prepare for different submission channels by using standardized data formats like XML news applications (NewsML, NITF).
