Euronews is a European multilingual news media service, headquartered in Lyon, France. Created in 1993, it aims to cover world news from a pan-European perspective. Naguib Sawiris, an Egyptian businessman, is Chairman of its Supervisory board. The Sawiris family owns 53% of the media (through Media Globe Networks).

As a rolling-news channel, headlines from both Europe as well as the world are broadcast in thirty-minute intervals. Each interval starts with a 10-minute news bulletin, followed by a promo of the coming show and a market update. If the space time is long enough, a weather report will be broadcast, followed by the news headlines. Next is shows about society, cinema, music,... End is "No Comment" and a weather report.

Brief magazine segments typically fill in the remaining schedule, focusing on market data, financial news, sports news, art and culture, science, weather, European politics, and press reviews of the major European newspapers. These item slots will occasionally be preempted by breaking news or live television coverage. Some segments are displayed without commentary under the banner "No Comment", which has been the channel's signature program since its launch.

In 1997, the British news broadcaster ITN purchased a 49-percent share of Euronews for £5.1 million from Alcatel-Alsthom. ITN supplies the content of the channel along with the remaining shareholders, which are represented by the SOCEMIE (Société Editrice de la Chaîne Européenne Multilingue d'Information EuroNews) consortium. Euronews SA is the operating company that produces the channel and holds the broadcasting licence. It is co-owned by the 10 founders and:
