Mergers & Acquisitions: JIG Media Acquires Healthy NYC

MANHATTAN, N.Y. - Dec. 20, 2016 - PRLog -- JIG MEDIA announced today the acquisition of HealthyNYC.com, which will be transformed into a digital platform for all things healthy in the five boroughs of NYC. This is the first digital property of its kind that will focus on bringing all health and wellness related resources and information to the residents of New York City on one platform.

During this recent 2016 presidential election, the concerns about Obamacare and healthcare for all Americans was one of the major topics and talking points among the candidates that captured the attention of middle America and the major metropolitan cities such as NYC.

Speaking of NYC, city officials, politicians, healthcare providers and residents have been addressing a variety of issues over the past decade about the need for better options and accessibility to quality health care and wellness resources. As a part of the solution JIG Media's Healthy NYC rollout will address all aspects of health and wellness, diet, mental health, exercise and all things health-related that impact the lives of NYC residents. Per a recent study done by the County Health Rankings NY, Bronx County is currently listed as the unhealthiest borough in New York State for the past 7 years. This unfavorable ranking was taken quite seriously by Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr., who then introduced the "#Not62 (http://www.healthynyc.com)" campaign as one of the many solutions to address this issue. In efforts to help make the Bronx and the rest of NYC a healthier place to live, Healthy NYC's rollout will have an immediate concentration on Bronx County.

"This acquisition of Healthy NYC is in line with JIG Media's growth strategy and will enhance our position within the rapidly growing digital marketplace," said CEO Vernon Jones Sr. "We look at Healthy NYC as an initiative, which begins with spreading information where people consume news, which is digitally."

All Healthy NYC subscribers will receive healthcare daily alerts and up-to-date information on their smartphones and mobile devices. Go to www.healthynyc.com to receive updates and an invitation to the launch of the initiative.
