Creating new formats, features and products for news consumers



Audio and voice

Reaching Gen Z

Evaluating and prioritising opportunities

Personalisation products

Using innovative content formats to meet diverse audience needs

Product has a role in supporting newsrooms to create different content formats that will attract and engage multiple audience segments. oming out of Covid many of our readers are more aware, and critical of, the amount of time they are spending on screens. This awareness combined with progress in headphone and smart device technology means that audio formats are becoming increasingly important to news organizations. Many publishers are also focused on how to attract a Gen Z audience, a generation that is the first digital and social native generation who seems more comfortable on Tiktok than using news products. How should media companies approach this? Which formats should they be focusing on? Who should lead the charge internally? And how do we evaluate success?
