About PRX

PRX was launched in 2003 through a collaboration between the Station Resource Group and Atlantic Public Media, an inventive public radio production and training organization whose work also includes Transom.org. Today we serve independent producers and organizations by helping them connect to their most engaged, supportive audiences. 


Celebrating more than 20 years as a nonprofit public media company, PRX works in partnership with leading independent creators, organizations, and stations to bring meaningful audio storytelling into millions of listeners’ lives. PRX is one of the world’s top podcast publishers, public radio distributors, and audio producers, serving as an engine of innovation for public media and podcasting to help shape a vibrant future for creative and journalistic audio. Shows across PRX’s portfolio of broadcast productions, podcast partners, and its Radiotopia podcast network have received recognition from the Peabody Awards, the Tribeca Festival, the International Documentary Association, and more, including in 2022 when Futuro Media and PRX won a Pulitzer Prize.

 

Mission

PRX’s mission is to lead changes that expand public media as a trusted source of knowledge, information, and inspiration for all.

…and what we believe in.

Our Imperative

Our approach is grounded in the practice of opening closed systems by telling stories that might not otherwise be told, offering a wide variety of program choices and by improving opportunities through innovative technology. We have an expansive definition of public media, which includes not just the stations and networks that built what we have now, but many other individuals and organizations working to create media in the public interest. Our imperative is to be bold.

Our values drive us forward and are instilled in the work of PRX every day.  

Courage - We believe in risk. 

Humanity - We believe in respect.

Opportunity - We believe in access. 

Purpose - We believe in a better world. 

Equity - We believe in diversity. 

We are also committed to creating an anti-racist organization, one where all employees can be their true authentic selves, are treated fairly and with dignity, and where diverse perspectives and voices are valued and respected. Read our full IDEA Statement here.
