Supporters
At Ping News, we are a proud Community Interest Company (CIC), focused on empowering the independent news sector with additional revenue streams. Our syndication platform specifically has been built with support from major tech partners, whose contributions have been instrumental in shaping the tools and technologies we can provide to local news outlets. While we deeply value these partnerships, our commitment to independence remains at the heart of everything we do, ensuring that our mission is always driven by the needs of the news organisations we look to support.
The Google News Initiative Fund supported Ping News via Cardiff University as a proof of concept R&D phase, and then independently through helping fund our core news syndication platform.
Nesta's Future News Fund supported the development of a feature of our Syndication Platform called Ping!-Trends, which identifies trending stories by tag and allows faster searching.
Meta helped us fund the development of some key features within our news Syndication Platform.
