Music industries and institutions
IPC Media is a large UK publisher formed in 1963 that publishes magazines across various genres and target audiences. They would be a suitable publisher for a new music magazine given their long-running success with NME, but they would not want to publish a magazine that directly competes with NME for readership. They have expertise in creating magazines for music fans aged 16-25 years old but would likely only publish a magazine in a genre not directly covered by NME, such as R&B, to avoid cannibalizing its own sales.
