The magazine for Aycliffe Business Park | 29 The Porsche 918 Spyder – valued at an eye-watering £1.5m – was the star attraction at a business networking event to celebrate the launch of Tees Life issue 2. £1.5m motor the star attraction at business networking event Several businesspeople attended an event to celebrate the second issue of our sister magazine, Tees Life, held at the impressive new Porsche garage on Teesside. More than 40 people gathered for the networking event at Preston Farm in Stockton, with an impressive array of motors catching the eye of attendees. The star attraction was the 918 Spyder Weissach. There are only 918 in the world – hence its name, and its £1.5m price tag! It’s on sale at Porsche’s impressive new showroom – among many other stunning cars – which is operated by JCT600, the privately-owned franchise with no fewer than 50 dealerships between Boston to the South and Newcastle to the North. The networking event was to celebrate the Summer issue of Tees Life, published by Resolution Media and Publishing, which is part-owned by Aycliffe Today Business boss and Mantis Media director Martin Walker. Resolution increased circulation of the second edition of Tees Life to 7,000 and added more editorial content. Walker said: “We’ve had to expand Tees Life and add pages to accommodate an obvious demand from businesses across the Teesside region. “We’ve also added editorial pages, so there’s more exclusive content to read in what is a unique publication for Teesside.” Now with a print readership of 20,000+, Tees Life is published quarterly and circulated free to homes, pubs, restaurants, hotels and salons across Teesside including Wynyard, Eaglescliffe, Yarm, Ingleby Barwick, Wolviston, Hartburn, Nunthorpe, Marton and Guisborough. It features original editorial content covering food and drink, fashion, motoring and sport, people and places, homes and interiors, advice and events. The second issue consisted of 52 pages, made up of less than 40% advertising and more than 60% editorial content. The third issue of Tees Life is due out in October. Space is available from just £145 per issue, with pay-monthly packages available from just £49 a month.
