Nikki Simpson, Founder and Director of the International Magazine Centre, takes the spotlight as a guest on The Global Discussion. With an unwavering love for the magazine industry, Nikki's expertise shines through as she discusses her mission to support and uplift small businesses in the ever-evolving world of magazine publishing.

At the helm of the International Magazine Centre, Nikki leads a membership organization dedicated to empowering small enterprises working in and around the magazine publishing realm. The centre's patrons enjoy exciting benefits, including exclusive access to captivating events like the renowned Magazine Street celebration in Edinburgh, the virtual Mag Meet sessions, and the enlightening Hive peer-to-peer coaching events. They also enjoy discounted training courses tailored for small businesses in magazine publishing, a mentoring scheme catering to professionals at all career stages, and a vibrant online forum on LinkedIn.

Nikki's ultimate vision goes beyond virtual connections and digital engagement. Her long-term aspiration involves establishing the prestigious International Magazine Centre in Edinburgh—a physical haven that embodies all things magazine.
