The European News Exchange (short: ENEX) is an association of the world’s leading commercial TV broadcasters.〔Spiegel.de, 1995, ("Haie, Schlangen, Elefanten" )〕 Coordinated by the ENEX Centre in Luxembourg,〔Luxembourg Business Database, 2014, ("European News Exchange" )〕 ENEX members share their news content and news production resources in order to gain competitive advantages in newsgathering.〔Hitting the Headlines in Europe: A Country-by-country Guide to Effective Media Relations, Cathie Burton, Alun Drake, 2004, page 56〕 ENEX began as a technical service platform and has over recent years transformed itself into becoming a news provider that gathers daily news video stories from its members in a news pool. All ENEX content is available, exclusively to its members, for free.〔Variety.com, 1997, ("Euros probe TV News" )〕 To ensure exclusivity, only one channel per territory is allowed to join.〔Planet-Wissen.de, 2009, ("Fernsehnachrichten" )〕 == Company’s History == On 14 December 1993, managers from RTL Television, RTL Belgium, RTL Nederland, M6 in France, and CLT (Compagnie Luxembourgeoise de Télédiffusion or CLT, later to become RTL Group) met in Luxembourg to found the European News Exchange. The initial goal was to combine the resources of the different TV channels and to reduce costs by sharing news footage, technical facilities and satellite space. ENEX started operating in 1994. In 1996, ENEX merged with the "News Consortium" consisting of CBS, Sky News, VTM Belgium and TBS Japan. The members of the News Consortium joined ENEX, now operating one digital and one analogue satellite channel. Ten years after its inception, 30 ENEX members were making tens of thousands of bookings on 10 satellite channels and exchanging more than 5,000 news stories per year. In 2003, ENEX digitised the picture exchange; all news stories were now recorded on a server. The following year the number of items nearly doubled when footage from CBS Newspath was added. In 2005, ENEX introduced News Link, a system for the transmission and exchange of content via the internet on a file-sharing basis.〔Eutelsat.fr, 2008, ("The BIS TV News" )〕 Today, ENEX has 52 members and operates 14 digital satellite channels on Eutelsat 16A.〔Enex.lu, 2015, ("Shared Satellite" )〕 All ENEX members contribute and receive content from all over the world via News Link HD. In 2013, ENEX members delivered the all-time high of over 27.000 items of video content. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「European News Exchange」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
