MEDIA KIT: Electronics For You

Born in 1969.
At IIT Madras.

(India’s Leading Engineering Institution)

Mission:
Enable informed decisions
related to Technology.

Decisions could be connected with R&D, purchase, deployment, investment, career or education, but as long as they are connected with tech, Electronics For You magazine's mission is to help its readers in making informed decisions.

Editorial
Calendar Scrapped

Effective 2021, we’ve decided that we will no longer be publishing our Editorial Calendar. Instead, we will be sharing the list of key topics that we strive to drive. But, without any guarantees. We want to retain the right (and power) to throw not-so-great content into the dustbin and not waste trees on it.

4 Audience Segments.
4 Editorial Sections.

Entire content of the magazine has been divided into 4 separate sections. Each section targets a specific target audience, and helps them make their informed decisions.

1. TECH


Features technology trends & innovations.
For all those interested in latest technology.
This section appeals to a broad spectrum of EFY’s audience, who want to know what's cutting edge, and why is it important.

2. DESIGN


Section focused on Electronics Design.
Features content that enables R&D and Design Engineers to design electronics circuits, embedded systems and complete systems.

3. DIY


Features DO IT YOURSELF (DIY) content.
Targets DIY enthusiasts.
Many R&D and Design professionals refer to this section too, for ideas on how to solve their design challenges.

4. INVEST


Features content that assists “investment” related decisions.
A section targeting CXO-level audience which takes decisions related to investments.
Be it investing in deploying IoT in a factory, or investing in an SMT line. Or, figuring out how recent government policy will affect business opportunities. It's all discussed here.

1. We provide bonus publicity via promotion of ad and brand/logo via our Leading Supplier of Electronics monthly emailer
2. The actual readership for print might be a bit lower in 2021, due to lower reader-to-copy ratio because of Corona
3. But, readership via EFY Express is expanding at a very high pace now and expected to touch 200,000 before end of 2021

Different Needs.

Branding Pages
