HUB Uitgevers (English: HUB Publishers) was a Dutch magazine publisher. HUB Uitgevers was founded in 1993 and has grown to be one of the leading IT publishers, with over 15 consumer titles,[1] and a number of business-to-business magazines. More recently they ventured into the lifestyle segment publishing two women's and a men's magazine.[citation needed]
In November 2007, HUB Uitgevers took over four magazine titles from VNU Media: Computer Idee, PCM, Power Unlimited and the Dutch license for Gizmodo magazine.[2][3] In 2010 HUB Uitgevers acquired a considerable stake in Focus Media, publisher of the Netherlands' oldest photography magazine.[citation needed]
On August 26, 2013, the publisher filed for bankruptcy.[4] One day later the bankruptcy was granted.[citation needed]
