SPIEGEL-Gruppe

The company operates a diversified media publishing and production model. It commissions and distributes news, business, sports, science, culinary and educational content across print magazines, digital properties, newsletters, books and video formats. Value is created by editorial curation and production of factual content that attracts reader audiences and by packaging those audiences and formats for advertisers and broadcast clients.

On the demand side, it sells consumer access via print and digital subscriptions, single-copy retail and paywalled digital tiers, including bundle offers for business-oriented titles. On the advertising side, its SPIEGEL Media unit aggregates inventory across brands and channels to sell campaigns, partnerships and sponsorships to advertisers and agencies using rate cards and custom deals. Additional value comes from book publishing under its book imprint and from its production company, which provides commissioned non-fiction TV, streaming and social media content and licences formats to broadcasters and platforms.
