Traditional news magazine optimizes London based production using vjoon K4^® Cross-Media Publishing Platform.

Hamburg - The EMEA edition of Newsweek - produced from London - counts on the efficient and highly automated production workflows provided by vjoon K4. Integration, training and the first live production have been done in record speed. British vjoon integrator Selcom Systems installed the system only in July and just a few days later editorial staff successfully produced a first edition of the legendary magazine with it.

Nick Passmore, production editor of Newsweek says: “We are pleased with the increased efficiency brought by vjoon K4. Just in a couple of days the system was up and running and we could start production. Because of vjoon K4 we produce faster and, we are also convinced that it was a good investment for the future.”
