Our mission is to create the most innovative, entertaining and accessible magazines and Web sites for enthusiastic users of videogames, computers, Internet and digital entertainment. In any market where there is rapid and considerable technology change then Paragon can guarantee to be one of the first publishers to plot this change. Paragon takes delight in enthusing, entertaining and informing its readers all at the same time. Our success and business philosophy is built upon passion , people and profits . Our staff are young, dedicated and of the highest calibre.
Quality is the mantra that guides all our activities.
Despite, or perhaps because of, our pioneering culture, our success is founded on sound commercial principles where profit is used to stimulate further innovation and investment in existing and new products. Paragon is proud of its strong revenue growth and high profit margins which enables us to continue to build and create new products and forge new markets. Our rapidly growing and diverse portfolio guarantees a variety of dynamic media experiences for readers and advertisers alike. In May 1999, 3i and the Bank of Scotland backed a management buy-in led by new MD, Mark Simpson. This was promptly followed by the acquisition of IDG Media, which consolidates Paragon Publishing's position as one of the UK's top magazine publishers.
