The European media group Mediahuis was created in 2013 as a joint venture between two companies with a long history in Belgian publishing. Today, Mediahuis is a leading international multimedia company with a diversified portfolio and news brands such as Het Nieuwsblad and De Standaard in Flanders and NCR Handelsblad, De Telegraaf and De Limburger in the Netherlands. In July 2019, Mediahuis took its first ambitious steps in the English-speaking market with the acquisition of the Irish media group Independent News & Media PLC (INM), publisher of titles including the Irish Independent, Sunday Independent and the Belfast Telegraph. In 2020 the media group Saint-Paul Luxembourg SA and NDC mediagroep in the north of The Netherlands were added to the portfolio.
