Our take
Originally founded in 1968, the aim of Time Out was to provide reliable information about cultural happenings through the form of a magazine. It was intended to be an 'insider's guide'. It included detail about art, film, concerts, theatres and more.
Since then Time Out has diversified to include food and restaurants, and has straddled both the travel and hospitality sectors. It now uses digital advertising and social media, which have helped keep it relevant in cultural spaces.
Time Out has received new equity investment through a 2016 IPO, and it is making strategic moves from this. It is stopping the print publication of its content and placing a greater emphasis on its digital content. Time Out's current CEO, Chris Ohlund, has said he would be leading the company into its 'next phase of global growth' which has so far included the announcement of a global video collaboration program amongst its digital innovations.
