PanARMENIAN enters global news marketplace!

We are more than happy to welcome new provider at Beamups. Last week, a great photo agency from Armenia has joined Beamups - global news marketplace and we hope that our cooperation will bring many good stories from the Caucasus region.

We've asked couple of questions to Arpiné Grigoryan, Head of Corporate Affairs and Communications PanARMENIAN to help you better get to know them:

In few words... what is PanArmenian?

PanARMENIAN Photo is a photo reporting agency that supplies news photos, daily life images, reportage and feature stories from Armenia. PanARMENIAN Photo was founded by PanARMENIAN Media Company, which is known for PanARMENIAN.Net - the first Armenian online information agency celebrating its 10th anniversary this year.

What kind of stories do you focus on?

PanARMENIAN Photo covers the main social-political and economic developments in Armenia. It reports on cultural and sporting events, and international events that are connected with Armenia.

What is your main goal of using Beamups?

We are constantly seeking ways to spread our images and show our country and culture to the world community. Beamups is a great opportunity to sell our national news content via a marketplace, and enable international distribution and additional revenues. As a photo news agency that is transitioning to produce videos, Beamups is the perfect place to open up this market for us.

Beamups in Caucasus

Last week Beamups went to the capital city of Georgia - Tbilisi to attend two social media events happening there.

Jakub Górnicki, who recently started at Beamups and is responsible for Online Relations, presented at the Social Media for Social Change conference organized by PH International. The event brought together participants from Azerbaijan, Armenia and Georgia. Jakub led a presentation together with a great discussion about social media revolution and the changes it brings to old media role and model.

Social Innovation Camp (second event we took part in), where Beamups was one of the judges, was about solving social challenges in new ways - by bringing together ideas and digital tools to create web-based innovations in just 48 hours.

P.S. We will be soon announcing new buyers and providers from the Caucasus region ;) And you can expect to see us at more global events soon ;)
