Who What Wear, Future’s leading digital fashion and beauty destination, today announced the launch of Who What Wear Parents, a new style-focused parenting vertical. The launch is fronted by Who What Wear‘s first-ever digital Parents Issue, featuring actress Justine Lupe as the October cover star. 

Who What Wear Parents offers a curated, style-focused approach to parenting, taking the guesswork out of every purchase, from pregnancy essentials to school-aged kid gear and everything in between. This strategic expansion is a natural evolution for the brand, aligning with the changing lives of its audience and their growing interest in parenting-oriented content. 

As part of the launch, Who What Wear also unveiled The Mother Board, a trusted board of advisors made up of influential voices in style and parenting, including Who What Wear’s discerning mom and dad editors and seasoned contributors. Handpicked for their eye for style, real-world parenting insight, and commitment to making smart, stylish shopping easier, The Mother Board will contribute product curation and content for the new vertical.

Addressing the Unmet Needs of the UK’s Gen Z Renter Generation

Future, the global leader in specialist media and the UK’s most-read home interest publisher, has announced its latest launch set to address the shifting behaviours of the next generation of home interest consumers.

ROOMS, Future’s newest homes media brand is dedicated to renters under 35 who love their space but don’t necessarily own it. Launching exclusively on social media, ROOMS will live where its audience does, bringing a fresh, personality-driven approach to the homes media space.

ROOMS: disrupting the homes media landscape—one post at a time

With renters pouring time, creativity, and money into making their spaces feel like home, it’s clear that ownership isn’t a prerequisite for passion. This audience cares about personalisation, aesthetics, and self-expression just as much as homeowners do, yet traditional homes media has largely overlooked them. ROOMS is set to change that.

Created by Gen Z for Gen Z, ROOMS delivers entertaining, trend-led, and practical content tailored to the realities of renting. Emilie Mendham, editor of ROOMS, commented: “We’re tapping into pop culture, social media trends, and the everyday realities of renting to create content that’s not just helpful, but actually entertaining.”

Milestone celebrated with special anniversary issue and retro feature

Future, the global leader in specialist media, is celebrating the 20th birthday of the Hot 100 — T3 Magazine’s inaugural list of the hottest tech and trends in the world — picking out the greatest gadgets and innovations, while also looking back at some of the not-so-hot picks over the years.

Since 2005, the Hot 100 has helped guide millions of gadget enthusiasts, becoming the essential list of what’s hot and what’s not in the technology sector.

This year, the Hot 100 is once again packed with innovative tech, with everything from cutting-edge OLED TVs and smart fridge freezers getting a look-in. Over the years, some of the greatest tech ever has graced the pages of the Hot 100, from Panasonic Plasma TVs to the PlayStation 5.

To celebrate its 20th anniversary, Future tracked down the editor-in-chief of T3 who led the team that originally came up with the Hot 100 concept.

“With so many new gadgets coming out it was a full time job just to keep track, we decided a top 100 was a good way to filter out the best new products from the year for readers,” explained James Beechinor-Collins, Editor-in-Chief of T3, from January 2003 to March 2007.

“When I joined T3 the smartphone didn’t exist, we were on the cusp of a megapixel arms race in digital cameras, the ambition for TVs was bigger, flatter, brighter and the search was on for the one device that would do it all… and the iPhone became that one device.”

“It’s fantastic to see both T3 and the Hot 100 going from strength to strength after 20 years,” said Marc Chacksfield, Content Director of T3. “While the gadgets and innovations in the list have changed, one thing has remained the same: T3’s undying love for tech!”

To celebrate 20 years of the Hot 100, T3 Magazine has created a special retro feature highlighting the gadgets that were showcased in the first Hot 100. The 20th Anniversary Edition of the Hot 100, issue 372 of T3 Magazine, is on sale 11 April.

Future’s best-selling rugby magazine, Rugby World, and leading destination for empowering women through style, beauty, and culture, Marie Claire UK, revealed Rugby superstar and Olympian Ilona Maher as the face of their first-ever collaboration.

This editorial synergy spans digital and social across both brands as well as print with Rugby World’s latest issue hitting newsstands on Friday 28 March and is unique to Future, which is home to a vast portfolio of specialist media brands spanning fashion, beauty, gaming, tech, sports and more.

In her exclusive interview, Ilona opens up to Joseph Robinson, Editor of Rugby World and Ally Head, Senior Health & Sustainability Editor at Marie Claire UK, about body positivity, the burnout and expectation of being one of rugby’s biggest stars and more.

Bridging highly-engaged fanbases

The collaboration demonstrates Future’s differentiated ability to reach and bridge highly-engaged fanbases – from passionate rugby fans to Marie Claire’s fashion and beauty-conscious readers – and showcases the creative and innovative ways publishers are reaching audiences in today’s media landscape.

Joseph Robinson, Editor of Rugby World commented:

“Sometimes unlikely collaborations just work. On paper, Rugby World and Marie Claire UK could not be more different but dig beneath the surface and you realise we share more than you would think, primarily a passion for telling you incredible stories. Ilona’s story is just that – one that inspires and empowers millions around the world and being able to share it through not only Rugby World but also Marie Claire UK is a testament to what both brands stand for.”

Ally Head, Senior Health & Sustainability Editor at Marie Claire UK added:

“A partnership between two seemingly polar opposite brands doesn’t happen often – but that’s the ‘Ilona Maher effect for you.’ The globally renowned star is the embodiment of what both our magazines stand for, and she’s showing women worldwide that it’s okay to be multifaceted and, more importantly, yourself. I couldn’t be prouder of this world-first editorial collaboration, showing the power of brands coming together.”

Last July, Future’s industry-leading technology media brand, TechRadar, got a makeover.

With a new brand identity, an optimized homepage, and site improvements, the strategic relaunch aimed to help audiences more easily find the expert, trusted content relevant to their tech buying needs. 

By June 2024, precisely one year after the strategic relaunch, TechRadar’s US monthly usage as reported by Comscore was up 26% as consumers flocked to the brand for an unrivaled mix of news, opinion, reviews and buying advice across all key consumer tech categories. This momentum extended to August, with monthly usage up 42% year-over-year. 

Driven by strong editorial coverage around key product announcements and shopping moments in the U.S., such as Memorial Day weekend and Amazon Prime Day, the growth was further enhanced by TechRadar’s overhaul of its homepage that re-centered the product categories consumers care about most – from Phones to Cameras to TVs and all points in-between – allowing for easier navigation as users browse the site. 

The year-over-year growth comes as Future celebrates its ranking as the “#1 Tech News Publisher” by Comscore for the third consecutive year. 

“When we gave TechRadar a fresh new look and feel, we took a user-first approach to refocus the site around the expertise our editors and writers bring to consumer technology,” said Paul Newman, Managing Director, Tech at Future.

For eCommerce-related content, TechRadar’s unique page views in the US increased 38% in August compared to 2023. 

Newman added: “We’re thrilled to see the hard work has paid off, with best-in-class storytelling leading to sustained audience growth in the year following and big increases in engagement on our reviews-based content in particular.”

Celebrating 3 decades of trusted technology expertise with special commemorative issue

Future’s trusted UK computing technology magazine, PC Pro, celebrates its 30th anniversary with a special issue. The new issue celebrates the 30 greatest technological advancements since 1994, when the magazine first published.

From iconic moments such as IBM’s Deep Blue defeating Garry Kasparov in 1997, to landmark launches like the iPhone in 2007, PC Pro has been the trusted voice to guide consumers through the changes in technology over the space of three decades.

“Rather than look at old covers, we wanted to genuinely celebrate the march of technology,” said Tim Danton, PC Pro’s editor-in-chief. “If you think back to 1994, few people had even heard of the internet, and PCs were only in beige.”

In addition to the successes of the past 30 years, the magazine highlights the top technology fails from the ongoing Post Office scandal to the latest ransomware attack.

PC Pro’s greatest 30 moments in technology from the last 30 years

At Future’s leading global technology brand TechRadar, our dedicated team of experts live and breathe all things technology. But technology, from production through to consumer use and eventual disposal is a key producer of waste across the globe. 

That’s why sustainability has become a key focus for TechRadar, with an increasing amount of coverage highlighting the companies who are driving positive change and building much-needed environmentally conscious solutions.

This past April, TechRadar launched Sustainability Week, a week-long series focused on telling stories across the tech industry that celebrate, challenge and highlight all things sustainability, from going behind the scenes with companies championing sustainability to sharing tips on how to recycle your tech. 

Now, the brand is readying for its next phase in its focus on highlighting the people and companies at the forefront of sustainable tech. 

COMING NEXT

For the first time this year, in partnership with the environmental impact experts at Seismic, the TechRadar Choice Awards 2024 will add five Sustainability Heroes awards honoring progress to a more sustainable tech landscape. 

And next year, we’re excited to continue our work with Seismic with the launch of the first annual TechRadar Sustainability Awards! Convening a jury of industry-leading sustainability strategists, Net Zero advisors, reporting specialists, B Corp experts and communications consultants, these new awards will celebrate the innovative work happening across a range of disciplines and categories, including energy consumption, e-waste, supply chain sustainability and more. 

The five winners from this year’s Sustainability Heroes awards will be pre-qualified for the TechRadar Sustainability Awards in 2025.

Entrants will be evaluated not only for sustainable product innovation, but also their approach to people and overall business operations, including areas of sustainability education and consumer behavior to circularity in product design and supply chain ethics.

“We want to both facilitate and encourage sustainable practices in consumer tech, and one of the best ways we think we can do that is by celebrating the wins, even if they are smaller,” said Josephine Watson, Managing Editor, Lifestyle at TechRadar. “Combining our tech expertise with sustainability experts at Seismic means we can take a balanced and informed approach that focuses on meaningful impact and not greenwashing.”

HOW TO ENTER

Submissions for this year’s Sustainability Heroes Award at the TechRadar Choice Awards 2024 are now open here through August 15. There are eight categories to choose from, and you can nominate yourself for up to three categories.
