Print daily live in first phase of Börsen-Zeitung project

Nov 15, 2018 at 05:14 pm by Staff


German financial daily Börsen-Zeitung has switched editorial production to EidosMedia's Méthode publishing platform.

Based in Frankfurt, it produces a daily broadsheet, web portal, e-paper edition and mobile app for a mostly subscription-based readership.

Outside the Frankfurt newsroom, Börsen-Zeitung has a network of correspondents in major German cities and financial centres around the world.

The publisher wanted to increase productivity through greater integration between print and online workflows, and chose Méthode to help enable a unified workflow

Newsroom head said Stephan Lorz said they were looking for a system that would allow editing of daily print and digital editions integrally: "We also wanted to improve the connection to our external correspondents by better integrating them into the editorial system."

Correspondents will use the web-based Swing interface to participate in the newsroom workflow, creating multimedia stories from any location.

The first phase has been to move production of the print daily to the new platform; an e-paper is now to be launched, generated directly from the Méthode workflow.

A new streamlined deployment approach using standard configurations and processes has enabled the rollout of the print platform in just over six months. The new solution - which serves around 80 users - replaces a Hermes editorial system.
