Knight-Mozilla News Technology Partnership Announced

bhueppe

February 7, 2011

We are excited to announce the Knight-Mozilla News Technology Partnership, a Mozilla Drumbeat project supported by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation Journalism Program.

For the next three years, we will have the opportunity to engage a huge community, bring people together for trainings and in-person events, and ultimately build software to address the challenges facing news organizations.

We’ll be working with some amazing news partners: the BBC, the Boston Globe, The Guardian, and Zeit Online, who are launching the partnership with us, and many more that we will invite to join the initiative.

More information on the partnership and ways to get involved can be found on the blogs of John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, Mozilla project lead Nathaniel James‎ and Philip Smith.

Background on Mozilla and media in recent blog posts from Mark Surman, Executive Director of Mozilla.
