Newzulu managing director quits as Clive Dickens joins board

Newzulu, the tech company that aims to make everyone with a smartphone a potential journalist, has lost its managing director amid a broader restructure of the executive levels of the company.

It has announced that Alex Hartman has handed in his notice from the ASX-listed company, just days after Seven West Media acquired a near 20% stake in the business.

That stake has seen Seven’s digital guru Clive Dickens installed onto the board of the company, which gathers images and videos from citizen journalists around the globe and syndicates them through news wires.
