Tony Elliott
Founded Time Out in August 1968 whilst still a student at Keele University. Never finished university course.
Since then Time Out has become an international brand name with ‘Time Out’s in print or digital or both in over 26 countries around the world.
The focus from the 1968 to today is on good quality information for residents to get the best out of another city. Visitors also benefit from this insider information.
Most editorial staff only work for one section so ‘Time Out’ is really a series of mini-magazines all bolted together: from Art to Theatre. The brand is recognised for it’s expertise and as a result ‘Time Out’ is also synonymous with other established information strands like ‘Eating & Drinking’.
“The world is terribly short of accessible places for people with good ideas to find help to get started.
The School for Creative Startups provides that in London (and the UK) where the number of people with talent and interesting ideas seems to be limitless.”
