About B&T

Our vision

B&T (also known as B&T Magazine) is a new generation in business-to-business publishing, generating deep data on reader behaviour to serve each individual with the most relevant content possible. With these insights, B&T can pair readers and clients with who they want, when they want and how they want.

Our commitment to journalism moves well beyond the usual daily news cycles with in-depth premium content, visual nourishment, insightful opinion and the guarantee of genuine thought-provoking exclusive content.

The name B&T stands for Broadcast & Television. Nowadays B&T delivers news content for the full media landscape.
