Asociación Nacional de la Prensa A.G

What Asociación Nacional de la Prensa A.G does

Asociaci\u00f3n Nacional de la Prensa A.G. (ANP) is a Chilean gremial (trade) association founded in 1951 that represents more than 60 newspaper, magazine, and digital media companies across Chile, from Arica to Punta Arenas. It is headquartered in the Las Condes district of Santiago with a 12-person staff and is governed by a 16-member board of directors drawn from its member publications. Revenue is generated through ordinary and extraordinary membership dues set by the General Assembly, with no public pricing or revenue disclosure; the organization is a non-profit under Chilean law.

ANP's offerings are organized around five program areas: advocacy and press freedom (regulatory lobbying, Chapultepec Index participation, public declarations), training and professional development (Capacitaci\u00f3n ANP courses, Olimpiadas de Actualidad with INACAP and Editorial Zig-Zag), research (Bar\u00f3metro de Acceso a la Informaci\u00f3n conducted with Cadem), industry events (Encuentro de Diarios Regionales, Global Disinformation Summit), and publications (Revista ANP, newsletter, commemorative books). Its technology footprint is limited: a content site at anp.cl, a public fact-checking platform (VeriDatos, vddchile.cl) launched in July 2025 with Google News Initiative funding, and a separate site for the Olimpiadas de Actualidad. No APIs, developer SDKs, or proprietary AI systems are disclosed.

ANP's strategic posture is shaped by the structural pressure on Chilean print media: digitization, advertising migration, and AI copyright risk. Its 2025-2026 priorities include defending press freedom against the Article 8 AI-training exception, contesting illegal state contracting of clipping services, and recovering Servel payments owed to regional outlets. Internationally, ANP is integrated with WAN-IFRA, SIP, INMA, and FIPP, which gives it a voice beyond Chile's borders despite a domestic operating footprint.
