Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

OMG, the AIM-listed technology company, has hit a purple patch, unveiling two new deals in the space of the past few days.

The company, which specialises in mobile motion capture – recording movements digitally – has landed a new contract with the Highways Agency, fresh from its success working with the Imaginarium studio founded by actor Andy Serkis, who played Gollum in Lord of the Rings.

OMG's Yotta subsidiary will spend four years working to determine the condition of around 140,000km of Britain's main roads in a deal worth £2.27m. That win followed OMG's deal to supply Imaginarium with 80 of its specialist cameras. Shares have jumped a third in the last week.
