Wieni partnered with Bruzz in early 2024 to develop bruzz.be, a fast, scalable platform that supports over 200 editors in bringing news and cultural stories to the heart of Brussels. Today, the site is a trusted, dynamic source for everything happening in the city.
Who is Bruzz

As a cross-media organisation, Bruzz connects the people of Brussels with the city’s stories, broadcasting live, publishing on-demand content, and covering local life from every angle.

How did Wieni help?
Bruzz needed a reliable digital home that could handle complex editorial workflows, real-time updates, and high-volume traffic. Together, we built a future-proof platform that is fast, flexible, and always ready for the next big story.
Wieni took care of:
Editorial system for 200+ journalists and editors
Fast and reliable breaking news via push notifications
Seamless support for live and on-demand audio and video
Scalable infrastructure ready for high-traffic peaks
A lightweight, super-fast frontend optimised for caching and speed
