CyprusBeat – a new reliable weekday news briefing

CyprusBeat is a new product from the Cyprus Mail and Heart Cyprus. From Monday to Friday CyprusBeat offers news in audio format; a three to five-minute newscast in English that is just right for Millennials and the Gen-Z audience in Cyprus and around the world.

Its content is relevant and engaging, providing the perfect companion for audiences while they work, travel, exercise, eat. It is brought to you with no waffle; just the essence of what matters in Cyprus politics, business and society.

Written in a light, and digestible style, it can be played on the desktop, mobile phones or other devices on demand. It is also available on the Spotify and other podcast platforms. In keeping abreast with the rapidly changing listening behaviour of people as mobile listening grows, CyprusBeat was developed by a team of technology and news media experts, who specialise in audience engagement.

Critically the demographics of podcasting are explosive. The younger generation is embracing news content at a time and in format that works best for them. The audience growth has been fuelled by technology and this will only further develop in 2021 as 5G connectivity continues to be rolled out across Cyprus, Europe and the region.

With over 20 million views per month, and over 500,000 readers, the Cyprus Mail’s news is relied on for its credibility, accuracy, and quality. It also reaches the Cypriot diaspora all around the world.

A wide base that is also expected to take to the new bite-size news service.
