The student channel is being developed to reflect The Independents enormous influence in this sector, whether it be targeting students at school with the highly successful Fantasy Football for Schools game, those going to university via official association with UCAS or those opting for postgraduate study or an MBA.
An extensive range of commercial opportunities are available to clients such as sponsorship (for example our regular 48 Hours and business travel sections), cross media association with Independent Music Magazine, plus microsites, advertorials, competitions, games, and audio or video podcasts.
"The Independent Online works as a dynamic extra edition to the newspaper. It delivers independent values and interpretation to a loyal audience around the world. To our UK users, it provides the section-by-section opportunity to catch up on their specific interest, whether thats the Environment, Everton or Education."
