Paragon
has launched ‘Counterpoint’, a multimedia platform for capital markets
participants to engage with a community of peers in thought-provoking debate
and discussion on the challenges and opportunities provided by disruptive
technologies.
Counterpoint
will host and develop a range of content including articles, blogs,
videos and podcasts and will be available to industry readers across multiple
channels. Markets Media will become the first media partner later this quarter
and will publish the majority of all third-party contributed content.
“The
world has become awash with irrelevant content so it’s vital that the capital
markets have a focused venue that provides true insight and education,” said
Simon Hylson-Smith, CEO of Paragon and Editor-in-chief of Counterpoint. “By
providing access to a full range of potential market contributors, we’re
building a unique and powerful communications platform that can catalyze real
change in the years to come.”
"Genuine
thought leadership is a rare commodity, so we're delighted to partner with
Paragon to deliver even more quality content to Markets Media's unique capital
markets and trading community across its global platforms and publications,”
said David Griffiths, Managing Director of Markets Media. “True insight is not
only hard to come by, but a genuine differentiator for businesses."
Peter
Farley, a capital markets technology expert with over 30 years of experience in
institutional finance, will be the Consulting Editor of Counterpoint. Most
recently, he was Senior Capital Markets Marketing Strategist at Finastra.
“With
regulatory, capital and market structural pressures on all participants, clear
thinking is at a premium,” said Farley. “Counterpoint delivers this clarity of
insight and debate across a range of media, enabling contributing firms to
stand out and build reputations with key stakeholders.”
Counterpoint
will have an ‘open access’ approach to content contributors. The content will
be complimentary to readers, with a subscription or ‘pay-as-you-go’ model for
contributors.
