About the PPA

The PPA (Professional Publishers Association) exist to represent, champion and support specialist media businesses. Members range from large multi-national companies to smaller independent publishers and from consumer magazine media to B2B news, data and information providers. 

Synonymous with magazine media for over 100 years, today the PPA membership is made up of modern, multi-platform media businesses carving out a new future defined by trusted, quality content. Whether on the page, online, or face-to-face, PPA members create professional, inspirational and influential media content that engages and influences audiences.

Our members reach broad and diverse audiences through engaging online content, informative, educational and professional magazine publications, exciting live events, unmissable podcasts and many other touchpoints, to create communities connected by shared interests.

Our 300+ members include 150 of the UK’s largest publishing houses, including Bauer Media Group, Condé Nast, Future PLC, Haymarket Media Group, Hearst UK, Immediate Media Co, Incisive Media, New Scientist and William Reed Business Media, as well as many smaller independent publishers.

Specialist publishing remains an integral part of the media industry. The sector is worth £3.74 billion to the UK economy, employing around 55,000 people, and with more than 40 million adults in the UK reading a magazine each month.

From liaising with government, to chairing important forums and strategic working groups, the PPA unites the specialist media sector around the current issues and challenges that are crucial to its members and our industry.
