New publication to promote Tees Valley to the UK and beyond
he publishers of Tees Life are
launching a new annual publication
to promote the Tees region to the rest
of the UK and beyond – with advertising
opportunities now available.
Middlesbrough-based Resolution
Media and Publishing are launching This
Is Tees Valley, with the first issue due to be
published later this year.
With an initial print run of 10,000, the
high-quality publication will promote the
businesses, investment opportunities, people,
lifestyle and living spaces available in the
Tees region.
Supported by the Tees Valley Combined
Authority and mayor Ben Houchen, This
Is Tees Valley will be the ultimate print
marketing tool for the Tees region.
But it also gives individual businesses and
organisations the opportunity to promote
themselves to movers and shakers, business
leaders, politicians and potential investors
across the UK and beyond.
This Is Tees Valley will launch with an
impressive distribution across the UK,
including the Tees Valley and wider North-
East region.
Tees Valley mayor Ben Houchen said: “The
Tees Valley has so much to offer – from the
biggest investment opportunity in the UK at
the South Tees Development Corporation,
the only mayoral development corporation
outside of London, to expertise in the critical
sectors of tomorrow, including biologics,
precision engineering and materials and
chemical processing.
“We’re a great place to invest, work and
live, with people and industry getting more
for their money in a region that’s on the up.
“We have to be unashamedly positive
about our fantastic assets and opportunities
and we have to pitch this to a wider world.
If we don’t bang the drum for our region, no
one else will.
“With the launch of This Is Tees Valley, we
have a great chance to come together to get
our voices heard across the UK and shout
about the game-changing projects happening
here.
“From offshore wind to hydrogen, digital
to biologics, we’re leading the way.
“This publication will show off our great
companies, organisations and institutions,
getting them in front of some of the
country’s biggest investors, business leaders
and decision-makers.
“I look forward to seeing this magazine go
from strength to strength.”
Although exact circulation figures are still
being finalised, of the initial 10,000 copies
it’s envisaged 1,000 will be mailed direct to
investors, politicians with business briefs and
influencers.
Around 2,000 copies will be circulated in
the North-East region, while another 2,000
will go to our local businesses to take with
them on business trips.
Around half of them, about 5,000 copies,
will be circulated to businesses around
the country at UK-wide exhibitions and
conferences.
Tees Life co-editor Dave Allan said: “We’re
really excited to be launching another first
for the Tees region.
“We’re passionate about Teesside and the
Tees Valley, and that comes across in our
publications – now we want to show the rest
of the country what we’re all about, and the
fantastic investment opportunities we have
here.”
Space in This Is Tees Valley is available
from £295 (quarter page ads), to £495 (half
page), £845 (full page) and £1,395 (double-
page spread).
