WORDPRESS parent AUTOMATTIC has made an investment in podcast platform RADIOPUBLIC. The companies last year entered a non-exclusive partnership to make RADIOPUBLIC's player available for all WORDPRESS.COM websites.
WORDPRESS.COM President KINSEY WILSON said, "WORDPRESS helps empower communities large and small, whether by providing a viable platform for local journalism, or advancing the work of small businesses and entrepreneurs. Podcasting is increasingly a vital part of these efforts, and RADIOPUBLIC is developing leading-edge tools and practices for the industry.”
Other investors in RADIOPUBLIC, which was co-founded by PRX co-founder JAKE SHAPIRO, include THE NEW YORK TIMES, BOSE, WGBH/BOSTON, MCCLATCHY, and AMERICAN PUBLIC MEDIA.
