FlightGlobal parent ProMedia Group acquires French aerospace publisher Aerospatium
Latest purchase strengthens group’s presence in France following earlier deal for Aerobuzz.
ProMedia Group, the Rotterdam-headquartered publisher of business-to-business media specialising in transport, logistics and mobility, has acquired French aerospace publisher Aerospatium, further strengthening its international aviation, aerospace and defence media portfolio.
Aerospatium will become part of the expanding FlightGlobal portfolio, which includes the FlightGlobal.com website, Flight International magazine, Flight Daily News, Airline Business, Air Cargo News, Dutch-language Luchtvaartnieuws and French aviation media brand Aerobuzz.
Founded in 2016 and based in Toulouse, Aerospatium is a specialist French-language digital publication covering commercial aviation, aerospace manufacturing, military aviation, space exploration and emerging technologies, providing industry professionals with independent news, analysis and insight through its website and a fortnightly digital magazine.
The acquisition represents another important step in ProMedia Group’s commitment to investing in specialist business-to-business media and developing a leading international network of specialist aviation and aerospace media brands, combining strong national market expertise with global industry reach.
It also creates opportunities for greater editorial collaboration, audience development and commercial partnerships across the FlightGlobal portfolio, while preserving the specialist knowledge and editorial identity that have established Aerospatium’s position in the French aerospace media market.
“We are delighted to welcome Aerospatium to the FlightGlobal family,” says Sophie Wild, managing director of FlightGlobal.
“Aerospatium has established a strong reputation for specialist journalism across the aerospace, space and defence sectors, making it an excellent addition to our growing portfolio. Its expertise and established position in the French market complement our existing brands and further strengthen our ability to deliver high-quality, independent journalism to audiences around the world.”
“With the addition of Aerospatium, alongside our recent acquisition of Aerobuzz, we are significantly expanding our presence in France, one of the world’s most important aerospace markets. We see exciting opportunities to collaborate across our brands, share expertise and develop new ways to connect our audiences and commercial partners with the global aerospace industry.”
