Black Ox Media & Events buys Business & Innovation Magazine

By Charlotte Tobitt

Black Ox Media & Events has made its second acquisition of a regional business title in under two years.

It has bought the five-year-old, bi-monthly Business & Innovation Magazine, which has an audience in Gloucestershire, Worcestershire, Oxfordshire, North Wiltshire, Bristol, Coventry and Warwickshire. In January 2021 it started out by buying The Business Magazine which covers Thames Valley, The Solent and the South East from Elcot Media & Events Limited, and it says it has since invested in the title’s digital output.

The company said the new acquisition will allow it to “make further investment in its regional reporting alongside rolling out a comprehensive regional event and conference programme”.

Black Ox managing director Richard Thompson said: “We share a common purpose, to promote, connect and inform the regional business community with high-quality journalism and engaging events programmes and experiences.”
