Newsbridge

France Télévisions recently launched its first internal start-up accelerator. After a pre-selection phase and a session of presentations in front of an internal jury, the start-up Newsbridge was chosen to benefit from the acceleration program. This young company proposes to develop with journalists new ways of producing, conveying, sharing and qualifying audiovisual contents in an intuitive and collaborative way. During a 4-month acceleration, Newsbridge and the News division tested an image analysis and recognition tool to help index video content from the journalists.
