In May 2012, We Had A Vision To Build News For A Generation That No Longer Reads The Newspapers

Every once in a while, a company comes along and defines a generation. The answer begins with a universal need or motivation that every generation has, but has largely stayed unchanged.

The vision for SAYS.com, as crafted back in May 2012, was to re-create a news organisation for a generation that no longer reads the newspapers.

We wanted to offer a "Rapid 3D" news experience like no other - rapid (d)iscovery, rapid (d)istribution and rapid (d)iscussions. The goal was to become a next-generation news company that distributes into millions of homes each day.

Today, Because Of YOU...
