-5% employee growth in 12 months
Our take
Keeping people connected is among the many benefits of the digital world. Outside - formerly known as Pocket Outdoor Media - provides digital content for outdoor enthusiasts and athletes to find events, trade tips, and easily find the lifestyle content that is right for them.
Outside brings together a variety of traditional brands as well as additional content to create a complete user experience. Through its site, users can access meal plans, gear reviews or even online courses, as well as find the latest developments in any outdoor recreational or competitive activity.
The value of digital content is growing at an impressive rate, as is the target audience for Outdoor's content as the popularity of the outdoors is on the rise. As the market continues to grow, the company finds itself in a promising position for future growth, and it will be interesting to see what it focuses on next.
