If we've been quiet of late, it's because we've been prepping for a busy year that sets up an even more ambitious run-up to World Cup 2026.

KIT Magazine's Decade-Long Journey

Speaker
As well, it's been a time to reflect. After all, we piloted the magazine that inspires this series not 10 years ago. We did so on overlapping convictions, that football as a strategic and creative imperative for media firms was at a tipping point, and that the global game, an expression like no other of soft power and economic dynamism, is a worthy proxy for a fast evolving marketplace and business society compact. Suffice it to say, we were onto something.

KIT magazine started as a stridently print-first publication, pivoting to digital and an emphasis on Seven Aside during the COVID-19 standstill. With much of the world now back online and the KIT thesis bearing out in ways even we couldn't have imagined, we aim not only to revive a print edition in coming months, but with our growing roster of partners, bring new depth to our content by making Seven Aside a live proposition aligned to big business and industry moments.
