The Journal of Media Business Studies is a new journal on media business issues and is seeking manuscripts submissions.
The journal is devoted to research on business aspects of media including strategic, organisational, financial, marketing, and entrepreneurial issues and practices.

The editors are interested in topics including strategic problems of media in mature industries, growth strategies and management for emerging media operations, company renewal and rejuvenation processes, effectiveness of different types of corporate governance in media, best practices in organisational structures and operations of media firms, leadership in media enterprises, and issues of small- and mid-sized media and family-owned media businesses.

In text:
