Who We Are

Vygr – Where New Lives

Vygr is a News Media Brand from the house of Vygr Media Private Limited, that aims to bring powerful Tech to the domain of News & Media in India; giving immense purpose, speed and credibility to the creation & dissemination of New Gen-oriented News Content and information. 

Over 10% of the Indian population comprises of students and professionals functioning out of Urban India and a large majority of them are using smartphones for their daily needs.

Every platform - Website, App, Social Media Platforms, Community engagement platforms, User Forums, OTT has its own user base. Rather than trying to create a super-app and contesting against their power, Vygr aims to tap into their success formula and serve those users News and Information, they way they like it with the power of technology rather than arduous manpower.

The Problem Statement

Journalism has known traditional forms of news and content dissemination - Publishing, radio and then broadcast. The millenials (especially the late milennials) and the GenZ does not believe in reading stale news the next morning in the Newspaper. Their music choices rarely take them to the radio - so hearing the news on the radio is a distant thought. Broadcast has become entertainment and sensationalism than news information and a knowledge source. This generation that is currently the biggest demographic of India (nearly 60%) is not consuming news in traditional formats. But they often are so turned off by these sources that they dont end up reading at all.

Hence, even though we are surrounded by information…But our minds are getting tuned out to the noise. We learn only what we want to learn.  We know only what we want to know. We believe only what we want to believe.

Then, shouldn’t New Media adapt?
