About the company / Welcome

A growing media company

Sanoma Media Budapest is a leading media company in Hungary. Our product range includes various consumer magazines, internet products, television broadcasting, book publishing, conference organization and mobile media content.

Our greatest pride, however, is that we, as a large company, are able to devote attention to the demands of our environment, and we can create new products for our customers, which have high success rate. It is not an overstatement to say that the magazines, internet sites and television programmes of Sanoma Media Budapest are among the most popular ones in Hungary. Our magazines and content service, developed for the internet, television and mobile phones as well, basically reach the entire population.

Our organizational culture provides the editorial staffs with a high degree of autonomy, and our employees with exciting, unique tasks and sufficient independence. These elements are integrated into efficient and highly refined corporate routines, thus resulting in a transparent and effective operation.

The result oriented approach of our employees, as well as the communication and work culture that is based on mutual respect enables us to not only survive, but also learn and develop in a rapidly changing world.

The economic crisis of 2009-2010 posed a severe test for almost every market player. Moreover, it hit in a period when technological innovations already perturbed customer habits and buyer behaviour. The corporate strategy and the organization of Sanoma Media Budapest, as well as its 500 employees stood the test, and the company has improved its market presence due to its high quality professional performance.

The new direction of our development is to consistently transform ourselves into a commercial, service provider and content developer company from the magazine publisher and internet content provider media company we used to be. We strive to develop an organization that is able to perform any activity based on its knowledge and experience gained on the media market, or any activity that would benefit from our presence on the media market. We want to be identified not only with our products but also our continuous adaptation to customer demands, with our intention to shape the market and our ability to constantly renew ourselves.

We will witness a major transformation of the media market in the coming years, similarly to the last decades. The further development of the Sanoma Group, including Sanoma Media Budapest, will be fundamentally based on continuous learning, experimenting and our receptivity to novelty.
