Thirty years ago, publisher Peter Collins founded Academy Publishing and a series of SME-focused publications which have gone on to become a cornerstone at the ground level of New Zealand’s business community. Since 1980 thousands of companies have realised the benefits of advertising in these targeted publications. Academy Publishing has grown to be one of New Zealand's largest privately owned publishing houses with carefully targeted publications, offering in-depth analysis of current issues, exciting profiles, success stories and interesting people, along with details of the latest projects and products making news. Now also successfully producing “contract publications” for organisations, Academy Publishing is a professional in the sales arena and aims to provide all its publications free; without charge to either the reader or the organisation. After years of producing its own range of magazines, Academy Publishing realised it has much to offer organisations who want to produce their own magazine but don’t have the know-how, the time, energy or the funds to do so. Its experienced inhouse editorial, design, production and administration teams, along with dedicated sales teams, means Academy Publishing is fully equipped to produce a two page newsletter, right through to a glossy monthly magazine.
