The Bauer Media Group covers 16 countries and spans four continents, allowing us to open up new markets and work across national borders as a fast, flexible family.

We own more than 600 journals, 400 digital media platforms and 100 radio stations around the world and are the market leader in many international divisions. And we`re still growing. The foundations of our global expansion began in the 1980s when publisher Heinz Bauer started an arm of the business in the United States. Today, two-thirds of our sales are generated abroad and we have made numerous overseas acquisitions including many in the UK and Australian markets. International and interdisciplinary work is our strength – current projects are linked specifically and intrinsically to each other, while through an intensive global exchange we are able to tap synergies, promote creativity and new ideas.
