A new financial news reader
application developed by London-based digital marketing agency M6, Ltd. is set
to launch on July 22 in Manila, Philippines, the company revealed. Called Born2Invest, the application
aims to dominate a niche market that is currently overrun by general news
readers and enterprise applications.
Its key differentiators, however, is its
unique and uncluttered interface, proven and diversified five-pronged revenue
model, as well as strategy for content delivery that involves the curation and
aggregation of news from the world's most trusted sources.
Instead of trying to hit all notes
in a news reader, Born2Invest focuses on one thing: showing users must-read
content from top financial news sources such as Business Insider, Yahoo!
Finance, CNN Money, Bloomberg, Reuters, TheStreet, Benzinga, and The Wall
Street Journal, as well as custom stories published on its content delivery
network, Born2Invest.com.
Because the application only covers
select news outfits, the reader won't be overwhelmed. The reader also has an
option to customize his or her news feed by category, which include Mining,
Real Estate, Tech and Media. Readers will only see a news story once, no matter
if it's trending or not.
"In a world in which readers
are overwhelmed by a maelstrom of constantly updated business news, the need
for human filters and a curatorial voice has never been greater," stated
M6 in its investor deck. "Curation is where the value lies in improving
the organization and usefulness of daily news flow."
The company employs business news
curators from all corners of the globe who will "serve Born2Invest's
business news summaries to readers from within a single app and in any
language."
It takes pride in its strong client and advertiser base that
have enlisted its top-notch services for lead generation and new investor
acquisition. M6 sees the app taking a larger role
in emerging economies where audiences are starved for resources relating to
business news and financial inclusion.
Emerging economies, too, are an
attractive market for the company as smart phone use in these places are
growing at a rapid pace. "The emerging market
opportunity is specifically attractive to M6 as we intend to build a foundation
of loyal users in specific markets where customer acquisition costs are
relatively low while our ability to monetize those same users is high,"
the company said.
Born2Invest's patented mobile
technology and content are fully owned by M6. The application will be made
available in 150 markets and 54 languages within the next two years. M6's
management predicts that the application will be downloaded 900,000 times
within a year of its launch. M6, Ltd. is headquartered in London
with satellite offices in Texas and Manila.
The company runs content and
technology teams across Europe, the Middle East and the Asia-Pacific. For more

Apple iTunes and Google Play.
