It's only news if the right people know about it
CNW founded the Canadian commercial newswire industry in 1960, and has been a leader of that industry ever since. Over time, our expertise in this area has enabled us to become a trusted and integral part of the Canadian news landscape. CNW is the only company endorsed by the TMX for the calibre of its newswire and webcast services. CNW is the first place the media and financial markets look for news releases from Canadian organizations. In fact, the popularity of the CNW website www.newswire.ca has led to it becoming as important a destination for CNW clients' news releases as any media point . a news site in its own right.
In recent years, CNW has undergone an exciting transformation. With the newswire at its core, CNW invested heavily in new products and services that support the changing needs of its clients, and of the media and financial professionals who use the CNW newsfeed and website. CNW also invested in its technological infrastructure and in its people, working hard to attract and maintain the best and brightest in the business.
Today, CNW has updated the technology behind its renowned global newswire. The CNW newsfeed is now formatted in XHTML which means that a news release and accompanying multimedia assets can be simultaneously delivered in a single transmission to web audiences and newsrooms who crave photos, video and audio alongside traditional text.
CNW helps its clients create exceptional video, photography, audio and imagery so their news has impact. And to round out its support of the entire communications cycle, CNW offers MediaVantage, the premier web-based application for media intelligence and public relations workflow management. www.mediavantage.com
