The premier publication for current and political affairs in the Arab world, Al Majalla, one of SRMG's main brands, has relaunched its print edition in Arabic with a new design, along with cutting-edge digital platforms in both Arabic and English.
The brand has been revitalized in all facets as part of the relaunch, which also includes a fresh editorial content strategy emphasizing high-quality news, data, and analysis as well as a contemporary look and cutting-edge technology. The magazine's editorial and product offers will be regularly improved as part of the overhaul, which is now in its soft launch phase in response to changing customer preferences.
Al Majalla has been a dependable source for independent journalism for more than 40 years. It is famous for its historical reporting, perceptive interviews, and analysis by esteemed authors, public figures, and decision-makers from the Middle East and throughout the world.
The magazine's archives contain a wealth of illustrious and exclusive interviews with notable figures, including UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, US President Ronald Reagan, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, boxer Muhammad Ali, and poet Nizar Qabbani. It was formerly led by renowned figures like Othman Al-Omair, Abdulrahman Al-Rashed, and H.E. Dr. Adel Al Toraifi.
Al Majalla will explore current events through in-depth analysis, supported by statistics, presenting new viewpoints, with a dedication to becoming a trustworthy source of information in an age of pervasive disinformation, as part of the new editorial strategy.
The new Al Majalla will satisfy the rising desire to provide in-depth coverage and analysis to its audience spanning not just the Gulf and the Middle East but also major business hubs in Asia, Europe, the United States, and other parts of the world.
The inaugural print edition of Al Majalla devotes its cover story to the current events in Iran, exploring how changes in Tehran have an influence on the surrounding area. The first issue also features official historical documents, reports on the most recent economic and technological trends, as well as cultural news from the region and the rest of the world.
