RADAR Webinar - Press Association

The demand for quality local news, holding power to account and keeping audiences informed and engaged, is higher than ever. RADAR is a new service which harnesses the power of technology to deliver incisive, fact-based news stories to local media across the UK and Ireland. It brings together PA, the national news agency with over 150 years' experience in supplying quality content, and Urbs Media, a tech driven start up using a combination of reporters and automation to mass localise news. Reports And Data and Robots (RADAR) is a global first in successfully combining humans and machine to scale up local news production across core local news pillars such as; health, education, crime, transport, housing and environment. RADAR is moving towards a full market launch and is expected to be able to create 30,000 localised stories each month. Register for this webinar where PA's Editor-in-Chief, Pete Clifton and RADAR's Alan Renwick will outline the details of the service; how the technology works, the content topics, the assets we'll be producing and the ways in which news outlets can access and use the service.
