Who We Are

A Decade of Uncompromising Journalism

From a small editorial desk to a worldwide operation, Aevum News has grown without ever compromising on integrity.

Founded in 2018 in New York City, Aevum News began with a simple mission: to deliver journalism that transcends time and bias. Our founding team — veterans from Reuters, The Guardian, and the Associated Press — brought decades of editorial experience to create something new: a digital-first newsroom that prioritizes verification, depth, and fairness above all else.

Today, Aevum News operates from 8 global offices, employs 650+ journalists and staff, and reaches 25 million readers monthly across our website, mobile app, newsletter, and podcast networks. We publish over 500 original stories weekly and maintain real-time correspondence networks in more than 120 countries.
