The Futures Bright, The Futures Purple

December 2006 saw the launch of Purple Media Solutions Ltd, a new B2B communications business set up to produce a selection of already well established market leading magazines and events, previously operated by Nexus Media Communications Ltd.

The venture headed by ex Nexus Director Steve Hardiman, has been undertaken with full support from Nexus in a deal that enables Purple Media to focus its full attention on the needs of some important niche business sectors.

The portfolio spans four key markets including: Dentistry, Electrical Engineering, Business Equipment and Commercial Interiors and contains such established products as The Probe & The Dental Awards, Electrical Times, Hotel Spec &  Shop Spec & What to Buy for Business.

Purple M.D. Steve Hardiman said ‘The launch of Purple Media Solutions represents an exciting opportunity for us to really focus on delivering what is best for our products and our clients. I am delighted to have retained the services of many of the key staff working on the products which will ensure continuity of service and enable us to develop the portfolio in a manner that has not been possible in the larger business environment, which has to be good news for us’
