The media sector has changed significantly in recent years as advances in technology have caused all businesses to find new ways to reach their end customers. These changes have caused the media sector to become an increasingly important part of the UK economy and it is a key area of investment focus for Phoenix.
We have invested across the media sector and worked with leading management teams to adapt businesses to the changes in the industry. We have invested in a diverse range of companies, including traditional and electronic publishing businesses, a database business, a character rights exploitation business and, most recently, a media monitoring business.
