We are a group of people passionate about media. Started with a conversation between two founders at an open-air bar on a summer night in 2012, a small team of passionate young staff was gathered and founded The News Lens in a small business center in 2013
The media we want to create is to focus on important news locally and internationally, not just stating facts but providing diverse viewpoints and opinions.
We hope to experiment with various media formats and materials to engage the social network generation to easily share, discuss, and participate in issues of their interests.
