As 2025 comes to a close, we’re looking back at a year shaped by real newsroom challenges – and real solutions.

Less hype. More progress – exactly what broadcasters and journalists need. These are the moments that defined 2025. 

Events That Shaped Our Year 

From global industry stages to local events,  2025 was a year of conversations, collaboration, and community.
Event Highlights from 2025:

– CABSAT (Dubai)
– Broadcast Asia (Singapore)
– TAB (Austin)
– IBC (Amsterdam)

What We Built Together

This year, we focused on what matters most:
– Story-centric workflows – plan, create, and publish across platforms in one smooth workflow – in Cloud, on-prem, or hybrid: the same Octopus experience
– Smarter collaboration – with enhanced Octopus Web Client
– AI tools “that flow with you” – AI-empowered workflows, on-premise LLM options, context-aware AI tools, editorial control
– More flexible, intuitive user experiences
2025 was about putting control back into the hands of newsroom teams.

Celebrating Newsrooms in Motion

This year, we had the privilege of partnering with broadcasters around the world as they launched new channels, rebuilt workflows, modernized their infrastructure, and set bold new standards for storytelling. Here are just a few of the incredible success stories powered by Octopus 12 in 2025:
– Newsmax Balkans
– Hungary’s Major Newsroom Transformation
– TVC Nigeria
Compass Media (Cayman Islands)
– EBC Ethiopia
– NTV Mongolia
– Rustavi 2, Georgia
– IBC24 News, India
Across continents, cultures, and formats, one theme stood out: Broadcasters are building smarter, faster, more connected newsrooms, and we’re proud to help power their next chapter.

Stronger Together

In 2025, our partners’ ecosystem grew stronger than ever. New integrations, expanded partnerships, and deeper collaboration with industry leaders helped us build faster, more connected newsroom environments. Because modern newsrooms don’t work in silos.

These are just some of our new or strengthened partnerships:  Softron, SPX Graphics, IMC Technologies, RT Software, Framderop, Trint, Editshare, X.news

Our People, Our Energy

2025 wasn’t just about tech – it was about the people behind it. From team meet-ups across countries to long expo days and coffee-fuelled office hours  – this is what made the year special. 😊

Because Octopus is not just a Newsroom in motion- it’s people in motion!

Looking Ahead

As we move into 2026, our focus stays the same:
Build tools that respect journalists’ time, support their workflows, and keep news moving.

Thank you for being part of our 2025!
