However, it was not until Cordelia Sealy took over as editor that the publication began to develop as a fully audited controlled circulation magazine.

The company still publishes PC Magazine, which has a circulation of 1.23 million, three controlled circulation magazines in the technology sector, and five game magazines, including the recently introduced Xbox Nation.

The company was founded in 1960 by Vic Gould and Jack Pearce with the launch of Heating & Ventilating Review, one of the then-new controlled circulation magazines relying on advertising revenue rather than subscriptions.

The company has grown through a series of acquisitions and launches and now publishes six controlled circulation magazines, numerous websites, and stages 23 national and regional exhibitions in the UK and Ireland as well as eight award events.

Arizona Business Magazine began in 1985, when Publisher Michael Atkinson purchased a 2-year-old publication called Arizona Office Guide to Phoenix, a Quarterly controlled circulation magazine of 7,000 that focused solely on the Phoenix office market.
