Local Beats Media | Pune's Premier Local News & Content Production

About Local Beats Media

Founded right here in Pune, Maharashtra, Local Beats Media was born from a passion for genuine storytelling within our vibrant community. We witnessed the need for media that truly reflects the local spirit, celebrating its achievements, addressing its challenges, and connecting its diverse voices. Our journey began with a simple idea: that every street, every neighbourhood, and every individual in Pune has a story worth telling.

Over the years, we've grown into a dedicated team of journalists, producers, storytellers, and digital strategists who are deeply rooted in the local culture. Our values are simple: authenticity, integrity, community focus, and excellence in production. We are committed to ethical reporting and creating content that is not only informative and engaging but also builds trust and strengthens community ties.

Our mission goes beyond just reporting; it's about fostering a sense of belonging. We aim to be the trusted source for local news, the platform for unheard voices, and the go-to partner for anyone looking to share their narrative with the Pune community. We understand the unique rhythm and pulse of this city – its history, its rapid modernization, its educational hub status, and its rich cultural tapestry – and we leverage this understanding to create media that truly resonates. We believe that by highlighting the stories that matter most locally, we contribute to a more informed, connected, and empowered community. Let us be the beat that carries your story throughout Pune and beyond.
