Electronics Weekly
British trade journal
Electronics Weekly is a weekly trade journal for electronics professionals which was first published by Reed Business Information on 7 September 1960. It was the first British Electronics newspaper and its founding editor was Cyril C. Gee who had previously been the editor of British Communications and Electronics. It is available in print and electronic formats. The magazine's circulation in 2023 was 25,000 copies. In August 2012 Metropolis International purchased the title from RBI.
Topics covered within the magazine include news and features on design, components, production and research, as well as news stories and product listings. Electronics Weekly is available free to qualified electronics professionals. The bulk of revenue received to fund the magazine comes from display and recruitment advertising.
