About PPA Associate Membership

The PPA’s Associate Members are right at the heart of the UK consumer magazine and business publishing sector.

The PPA Associate Membership scheme offers you a direct gateway to a £4bn industry.

Associate Membership is designed to be a conduit between our members and relevant, respected suppliers. PPA members need advice, services and solutions to enable them to continue to develop their businesses. The PPA Associate Member base is the first port of call.

Being an Associate Member of the PPA puts you in the room with the people who matter. When decisions are made or opinions are sought, you can be part of the essential process. You will be able to gain critical intelligence to help you generate more business.
