Advertising content

More and more brands are interested in disseminating relevant content, to engage with the public. Following a trend in journalism and marketing, Mukanet also works with advertising content, that is, we publish releases or produce content tailored to certain companies or institutions.

The publication of this type of content is not made lightly with our readers. It is only published if it passes through our careful eyes and if we believe that the content is relevant.

These photos cannot be used by third parties, unless they pay for their use in a direct contract with GettyImages or Shutterstock. The improper use of these photos can lead to legal proceedings. mukanet is not responsible for the reproduction of these photos and images.
