Experts in promoting research

AlphaGalileo supports the commercial and academic research communities in achieving the best coverage of their news around the world.

AlphaGalileo offers: a high-quality distribution of news of all types to a global media and fellow researchers; media training for researchers and press officers; and a translation service.

Our multilingual News Management team provide professional assistance throughout the publishing process.

High quality international news distribution

We moderate the content we take and the media who can see news. News can be posted under embargo secure in the knowledge that only approved journalists will see it whilst the embargo is in place.

Currently there are over 7,600 journalists using our service on a daily basis from hard to reach freelances to media that includes the BBC, New York Times, Nature, Science, Chicago Tribune, China Radio International, Dagbladet, De Morgen, Der Spiegel, Moscowskaya Pravda and the Washington Post.

The service has a blog roll and customised RSS feeds of breaking news to bloggers, so that news is given the widest possible distribution. Selected stories are posted on Facebook and Twitter to extend the reach of the service.

AlphaGalileo takes all types of news science, health and technology, the arts, humanities, social sciences and business new in all European languages:

  • press releases
  • event information
  • publications (press releases about newly published books, CD-ROMs, DVDs)
  • multimedia items (video, podcasts, images, etc)
  • broadcast media video news releases, web- and pod-casts, video clips)
  • library items (background briefings for journalists)

Because our service, including all our media users, is moderated we are able to take news from peer-reviewed journals under embargo.

Items can be accompanied by images, sound and video files or PDF documents.

Bloggers do not have access to content that is under embargo.

Media training

AlphaGalileo provides intensive practical media training at locations in London or at other locations around the World if needed.

Translation services

Our partner translation service offers reasonable rates and a speedy turn round of your work. AlphaGalileo’s multilingual team can provide assistance with any queries that you may have.
