PA Media, the national news agency for the UK and Ireland, has won a top European editorial innovation award.
The news agency – whose shareholders include national and regional publishers – bagged the 2020 EANA Award for Excellence in News Agency Quality for their PA Explore project, a new website giving customers access to all of PA’s content across words, pictures, video, graphics and social media.
Pete Clifton, editor-in-chief at PA, said: “We spent a lot of time talking to our many customers, listening to their feedback, and then planning a platform that makes it as easy as possible for them to find PA content.
“Some of our bigger customers take feeds of PA content directly into their own systems, but for them, PA Explore is still the easiest way to check what PA content is available and the feedback has been universally positive.”
