Affinity-PrimeMEDIA
Le Partenaire Exclusif de Grands Médias

2012 already… time passes so quickly that we do not even notice it. Sometimes we wish to have more time, but if we had more, we would just take on more work or pursue more leisure activities and in the end, the outcome would be the same. So ultimately, it is not
a question of having more time but how to spend/invest the precious time at our disposal.

If you have time to read our monthly Newsletter, it will keep you updated of the latest advertising opportunities in the media we represent. We are glad to know your precious time is well invested.

We wish you a time-efficient and prosperous New Year!

  Bloomberg Businessweek

EXTREME HEAT
Bloomberg Businessweek has reached new levels on the hotness scale – and 2012 is sure to be a scorcher.


TOPPING THE HOT LIST (AGAIN)

They’re setting the media industry ablaze. In its latest “Hot List,” Adweek not only ranked Bloomberg Businessweek the No.1 business magazine, but it named Creative Director Richard Turley the Hottest Creative Player of the Year, calling Businessweek “one of the most talked-about magazines” of 2011.

  Roularta

Roularta Media Group is replacing the bimonthly “Gentleman” magazine with new initiatives: the Dutch-language edition of “The Good Life” magazine, which has just been launched in France (four issues in 2012), and “Trends Style” (six issues in 2012).

“Trends Style” is a new lifestyle magazine in the same format as Trends/Tendances. The title used to be published in the Nineties, but then became a column in the weekly Trends/Tendances magazine.

The column in question will not disappear, but, six times a year, the reader will receive a classy magazine along with the Trends package, highlighting the latest trends in the worlds of fashion, design, accessories, watches, etc. “Trends Style” will go out with the complete circulation of Trends (Fr/Dutch). The first edition of Trends Style comes out on February 23, 2012.

23.2.12 – Spring Style and Car buying guide
19.4.12 – Car guide and Travel guide
7.6.12 – Watch guide
6.9.12 – Autumn guide
25.10.12 – Watch guide, Accessories
29.11.12 – Gift guide

The French-language magazine “The Good Life” has been launched with great success on the French market. The first issue is a 'megabook’ of 360 pages, printed on book paper, with the fashion pages on art paper. It is a creation of Laurent Blanc, who is already responsible for the launch of “Ideat”. Herremans will be responsible for the editorial coordination of the Dutch-language version, intended for the Flemish market. This will come out for the first time on March 13, 2012.

With the launch of “The Good Life”, a whole new concept will be introduced into the market – the hybrid magazine.

In this case, “hybrid” represents the bringing together of economic, financial and cultural articles within a lifestyle magazine.

“The Good Life” magazine is aimed at the generation of active men and women between 30 and 45, who have higher education qualifications on their CVs, a look and style that is both nonchalant and relaxed, who speak impeccable English and are interested in the same brands and driven by the same passions.

GMM News! Guardian/Observer print & digital

The past 18 months have been among the most extraordinary in our long history. From the publication of the biggest cache of secret documents the world has ever seen, which brought the Guardian the title Newspaper of the Year, to the exposé of phone hacking at the News of the World, our reporting has consistently led the news agenda. The quality and bravery of our journalism, and our uniquely open and forward-looking approach to publishing on the web, have taken our reputation to new heights. And last week Campaign magazine named the Guardian Medium of the Year, recognising not only what we do for our readers but also the opportunities we provide for commercial partners.

guardian.co.uk now has 60 million unique monthly browsers at an average of 3.3 million a day, and our mobile site reaches over 8 million unique browsers a month. We estimate that our combined daily print and digital audience has topped 3 million individuals.

Other important milestones: this month has seen the 220th birthday of The Observer, the World's oldest Sunday newspaper.
