The African News Agency (ANA) is a news and content syndication service, focusing on news about Africa written by Africans for an African and international audience.[1]

ANA was launched in Cape Town in February 2015 by Sekunjalo Investments Chair and Executive Chairman of Independent Media, Dr Iqbal Survé, and the Chairman of the Pan African Business Forum, Ladislas Agbesi, following the liquidation of the South African Press Association (SAPA), previously a major supplier of foreign and domestic news in South Africa.[2][3][4][5]
