African News Dimension
AND is a news content provider that sits behind the local African media as a licensing bridge to news buyers who are looking for original African content.
Freelance journalists and media organisations (contributors) from across the continent currently submit their content to AND's database (ANDnetwork.com) where it is stored and perused by news buyers from around the world. The key concept that drives AND is that authenticated journalists or contributors can submit content unedited to ANDnetwork.com, the content is then available to purchase in its original format the very second that it is filed. Content submitted by unauthenticated journalists or contributors is checked by the AND editorial staff before being allowed to be displayed on ANDnetwork.com.
African News Dimension (AND) is a Multimedia News Content provider established in 2004. ANDnetwork went live on 1 September 2005 bringing a fresh approach to media in Africa.
AND has its offices in Sandton, Johannesburg in South Africa because of the strategic nature of the city and its advanced telecommunications infrastructure. However, it is focused on news from across the continent in every sector. AND also has associate offices and content contributors in many of the 59 countries and Islands on the continent.
