Digital newsstand company Zinio acquires Audience Media to expand publishing services

Digital newsstand and magazine platform Zinio has announced its acquisition of Audience Media, a developer of mobile app solutions. The pair will work to translate print publications into mobile apps for the best smartphone and tablet reading experiences possible.

The Zinio app on mobile allows users to access more than 5,000 digital magazines. This acquisition of Audience Media will expand the company’s digital publishing services. In turn, Zinio will extend its footprint in the world of branded apps for individual publications.

“Mobile is the future of digital publishing, and this acquisition reinforces our ability to work with more magazine publishers to deliver premium content to an expanded audience of users,” said Joan Solà, EVP of Chief Global Markets at Zinio.
